How do I use Trulicity®?

Trulicity is a prescription medication that is prescribed by your physician to treat diabetes, obesity, or other health conditions. It is your healthcare provider’s responsibility to provide you with dosage instructions and instructions on how to follow them. Do not disregard your doctor’s recommendations regarding how to use Trulicity. Your prescriber should be consulted if you have any questions about your Trulicity regimen. Trulicity is typically administered once a week under the skin.

Is Dulaglutide Associated with Weight-Loss?

Technically, weight loss is not directly associated with dulaglutide (it’s main purpose was to help diabetics). However, as of late, Trulicity® has become more popular for its ability to help individuals lose weight. When taking dulaglutide, people typically lose between two and six pounds. Up to 30% of people gain weight while taking the drug. After a meal, Trulicity® helps you feel satisfied because it allows you to feel complete. If you are overweight or have gastrointestinal side effects, you are more likely to lose weight if you start at a higher weight.

The toxin affects of alcohol may also be enhanced by Trulicity®, resulting in flushing.

Any medication taken orally may be affected by Trulicity® because it causes a delay in gastric emptying. However, the effects of other medicines did not seem to be involved in clinical trials.

Dulaglutide is often compared with semaglutide, as they both have similar effects with weight-loss. 

Is Trulicity® Required to be Refrigerated?

When not in use, keep Trulicity® at a temperature of 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C). Leaving dulaglutide out of the refrigerator for up to 14 days without any adverse effects is possible at a temperature of no more than 86°F (30°C). After 14 days without being kept in a refrigerator, Trulicity® should be disposed of in a sharps container. When Trulicity® is frozen, it should not be used; it should not be used if it is frozen.

Is Dulaglutide Compatible With Insulin?

Dulaglutide is compatible with insulin. This may mean a reduction in insulin dosage. Combining dulaglutide and insulin increases the chance of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Trulicity® is suitable only for people with type 2 diabetes whose pancreas still produces insulin. Once a week, Trulicity® is injected subcutaneously. Insulin and Trulicity® are injected at different sites.

Can Trulicity® be Injected Cold?

Dulaglutide will sting more if you give it cold. Trulicity® can be given cold, but an injection will be much more pleasant if you warm it up before giving it. As long as the pen is kept no warmer than 86°F (30°C) and not exposed to light or heat, a Trulicity® pen may be left unrefrigerated for a maximum of 14 days.

If you take an injectable right from the refrigerator without letting it warm up first, it will sting when being injected.

Warming them up on a bench is the best way. The medicine should never be heated in a microwave, boiled, or cooked on a stove since this may destroy it.

If you wish to speed up the warming process, you can put the injection between your hands; however, be careful not to drop or damage the pen in any way.

How Does Trulicity® get Injected?

It is easy to self-inject the Trulicity® Pen, but it is best to get a demonstration from your physician or nurse before you try. Hold the pen directly in front of your skin and push the green injection button after removing the cap. Upon completion of the injection, you will hear a click followed by a second click ten to fifteen seconds later. Subcutaneous (under the skin) injections of dulaglutide are given once a week into the upper arm, stomach area, or thigh.

Is Dulaglutide a Type of Insulin?

Trulicity® (dulaglutide) is not an insulin. This type of treatment relies on beta cells, which are cells found in the pancreas responsible for secreting, storing, and releasing insulin.

GLP-1 receptor agonists such as Trulicity® belong to a class of medicines known as GLP-1 receptor agonists. Incretin mimics are also known as GLP-1 receptor agonists.
