WHAT TRULICITY IS USED FOR
Trulicity is used:
•
on its own if your blood sugar is not
properly
controlled
by
diet
and
exercise
alone,
and
you
can’t
take
metformin (another diabetes medicine)
•
or with other medicines for diabetes
when they are not enough to control
your blood sugar levels. These other
medicines may be medicines taken by
mouth and/or mealtime insulin given
by injection
HOW TRULICITY WORKS
Trulicity
contains
an
active
substance
called dulaglutide and is used to lower
blood sugar (glucose) in adults with type
2 diabetes mellitus.
Type 2 diabetes is a condition in which
your body does not make enough insulin,
and the insulin that your body produces
does not work as well as it should. Your
body can also make too much sugar.
When this happens, sugar (glucose)
builds up in the blood.
BEFORE YOU USE TRULICITY
_- When you must not use it _
DO NOT USE TRULICITY
if you are allergic
to
dulaglutide
or
any
of
the
other
ingredients of this medicine (see section
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
).
_Pregnancy and breast-feeding _
It is not known if dulaglutide could harm
your unborn child. Women who could
become
pregnant
should
use
contraception
during
treatment
with
dulaglutide. Tell your doctor if you are
pregnant, think you may be pregnant or
are planning to have a baby, as Trulicity
should not be used during pregnancy.
Talk to your doctor about the best way to
control your blood sugar while you are
pregnant.
Talk to your doctor if you would like to
or are breast-feeding before taking this
medicine. Do not use Trulicity if you are
breast-feeding.
It
