GLP-1 Medication Nausea: Management Strategies and Tips
The episode extensively explores the common side effect of nausea experienced by 50% of individuals using GLP-1 medications for type 2 diabetes and weight loss.
We explain why nausea occurs, detailing the medication's impact on gastric emptying and brain signaling. The sources offer a range of management strategies, including dietary adjustments like eating smaller, bland meals and avoiding trigger foods, as well as lifestyle modifications such as prioritizing hydration and rest. Furthermore, they discuss over-the-counter and prescription remedies, such as ginger, peppermint, and antiemetic drugs, while emphasizing the importance of consulting healthcare professionals for persistent or severe symptoms.

I just recently discovered that weed gummy’s help with the nausea and the upset stomach. I’ve also noticed I have a slight appetite uptick, but not much, and I ultimately end up drinking more water.

1000 MG ginger capsules on waking. You can use it as many times a day necessary.
