Medical Description

Trulicity 0.75mg Pre-Filled Pen is an anti- diabetic medicine. It contains dulaglutide as an active ingredient. It is used for controlling blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes along with diet and lifestyle modification. It can be used by individuals aged 10 and above. It is also used to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, or death in patients with type 2 diabetes with heart conditions. It works by stimulating the release of insulin from the pancreas, thereby helping reduce blood sugar.

The dosage of Trulicity 0.75mg Pre-Filled Pen will depend on your specific condition and whether you are taking other diabetes medications. You may use it at any time of day, with or without food; however, it is advisable to use it on the same day each week to maximize its effectiveness. Your doctor or nurse will instruct you on how and where to inject the medicine, so be sure to follow their instructions carefully.

Do not stop taking this medication without consulting your doctor, as this could result in increased blood glucose levels and expose you to serious complications. Trulicity should be used in conjunction with an appropriate diet and exercise plan to control high blood glucose effectively.

Store the Trulicity 0.75mg Prefilled Pen in the refrigerator until you need it; do not freeze it. The most common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite. It can also lead to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), particularly if you are taking other medications to lower blood sugar. Be sure to recognize the signs of hypoglycemia and know how to manage it.

Before using this medication, discuss with your doctor if you have a history of liver or kidney disease, pancreatitis, or any stomach issues. Inform your doctor about any other medications you may be taking that could interact with this medicine. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor to determine if it is safe for you to use Trulicity 0.75mg Pre-Filled Pen.

Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Dulaglutide acts in the liver, pancreas, and gut to regulate blood glucose by reducing hepatic glucose output, increasing insulin secretion, and slowing gastric emptying.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

  • Frequent monitoring of blood clotting parameters is recommended for individuals taking blood thinners, such as warfarin, concomitantly with the Trulicity 0.75mg Pre-Filled Pen.
  • Blood pressure-lowering medicines such as insulin and sulphonylureas (glimepiride or glibenclamide) may lead to a significant reduction in blood glucose, and hence the patient should be warned of the signs and symptoms of low blood glucose ( cold sweat, headache, fast heartbeat, feeling sick, tremors)
  • Any other medication, supplement, or herbal product you are taking or might take should be disclosed to your doctor to avoid potential interactions.

Interactions with food items

Eating a healthy, balanced diet is key to better controlling blood sugar. Consult your physician for more information on what kind of diet you should follow, since a diabetes diet is not one-size-fits-all. It varies among individuals, depending on disease severity and comorbidities.
