Use of Liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda) & Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus) Comes with Risk of Gastrointestinal Disorders Use of Liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda) & Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus) Tied to Increased Risk for Pancreatitis and Bowel Obstruction A new study showed that use of the GLP1 agonist medications approved for diabetes and weight loss including liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda) & semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus) come with a 9X increased risk of pancreatitis, 4X increased risk of bowel obstruction and 3.5X increased risk of gastroparesis compared to controls
