WARNING: Potential Risk of Thyroid C-Cell Tumors
Research in animals has linked semaglutide, the active ingredient in some GLP-1 receptor agonists, to thyroid tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). It is unclear if semaglutide causes similar tumors in humans. Notify your healthcare provider immediately if you notice symptoms of thyroid cancer, such as neck lumps or swelling, hoarseness, swallowing difficulties, or shortness of breath. Compounded semaglutide is not suitable for individuals with personal or family histories of MTC or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
