What is Trulicity?

Trulicity (Dulaglutide) is an injectable prescription medication that is used along with diet and exercise to lower blood sugar (glucose) in adults and children who are 10 years of age and older with type 2 diabetes. It is also used to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, and death in adults with type 2 diabetes with known heart disease.

Trulicity is not suitable for patients with type 1 diabetes

Indications and Benefits of Trulicity

Trulicity is a once-weekly injectable solution used to help people manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is not for type-1 diabetes and should only be used by people over the age of ten with a doctor’s prescription.

What Are the Benefits of Trulicity?

• Trulicity helps keep your blood sugar levels steady and within a healthy range
• This injection reduces the risk of major heart-related problems like heart attacks and strokes in adults with type 2 diabetes
• It is easy to use with a once-a-week dosing schedule, making it simple to remember
• Many people may see some weight loss while using Trulicity, which can support better overall health
• Trulicity is designed to work alongside healthy eating and regular exercise for the best results
• It can be used by people over the age of ten, giving younger patients another option for type 2 diabetes management
• Trulicity supports your body in releasing the right amount of insulin when needed and prevents your liver from making too much sugar
• Using Trulicity as directed by your doctor can help lower the chances of long-term complications from high blood sugar

Fact Table

How It Works

Trulicity works by copying a natural hormone in your body called GLP-1. When you use Trulicity, it helps your body release more insulin when your blood sugar is high. It also stops your liver from making too much sugar.

In addition, Trulicity slows down how quickly food leaves your stomach after you eat. All these actions together help keep your blood sugar levels steady and under control if you have type 2 diabetes.

Dosage

Typically, your doctor will likely start you on a low dosage and adjust it over time while they monitor how your body responds and find the dosage that is right for you.

The following information describes common dosages for Trulicity; however, it’s important to follow the dosage prescribed by your doctor.

Recommended Dosage

Adult Dosage:

The recommended starting dosage of Trulicity is 0.75 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. 

Your healthcare provider may increase the dosage to 1.5 mg once weekly for additional glycemic control. If additional glycemic control is needed, increase the dosage in 1.5 mg increments after at least 4 weeks on the current dosage.

The maximum recommended dosage is 4.5 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. Use this medication exactly as your healthcare provider tells you to.

Pediatric Dosage:

Trulicity and metformin:

Trulicity may be taken with metformin (Glucophage, Riomet, Glumetza, etc.), which is a medication often used to lower blood sugar levels for type 2 diabetics.

Metformin is usually taken once or twice per day. Your doctor may prescribe both Trulicity and Metformin together to lower blood sugar levels.

Dosage Chart

The Trulicity dosage chart below shows how this medication is usually prescribed for different age groups and treatment needs. It includes the starting dose, how your dose may be gradually increased if needed, and the maximum weekly dose.

Usage Guide

Trulicity is administered by injection once a week and injected subcutaneously (under the skin) in the stomach (abdomen), thigh, or upper arm. Trulicity is used 1 time a week on the same day each week at any time of the day.

You may change the day of the week as long as your last dose was given three or more days before your next dose. You may want to mark your calendar to remind you when to take your next dose.

Trulicity can be taken with or without meals.

It is injected under the skin of the abdomen (stomach), thigh, or upper arm. A healthcare provider, such as your doctor or nurse, will show you how to inject Trulicity properly.

Rotate injection sites and avoid injecting into the same area twice, as this can lead to injection area soreness.

Blood sugar (glucose) levels can be affected by a variety of factors, including:

• alcohol
• illness
• skipping meals
• stress
• exercise

If you experience low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), you may experience the following:

• confusion
• anxiety
• shakiness
• dizziness
• hunger
• increased thirst
• increased urination

If you have any of the symptoms mentioned above, you should consume 15 grams of fast-acting carbohydrates, a glucose tablet, sugary food such as hard candy, raisins, cookies, or 4 ounces of a sugary drink such as fruit juice or non-diet soda.

If you experience severe hypoglycemia, your doctor may prescribe a glucagon emergency response kit.

Close family or friends should be instructed on how to administer the glucagon injection in the event you lose consciousness and cannot consume anything orally.

How do you take Trulicity?

1. Use Trulicity exactly as your doctor tells you and follow all the instructions on the package.
2. Inject Trulicity under the skin once a week, always on the same day and at the same time.
3. If you need to change the day you take your dose, wait at least three days before the new injection.
4. You can take your injection with or without food.
5. Choose a different spot on your body each time you inject and do not use the same place two times in a row.
6. Each Trulicity pen or syringe is for one use only, so throw it away after you use it.
7. Your doctor will decide the right amount for you and may change your dose over time to fit your needs.

If you want to lose weight, talk to your doctor about creating a safe and effective weight management plan. This plan might still include Trulicity for your diabetes management, but it will also likely involve healthy eating and regular exercise.

Pancreatitis

Pancreatitis is a severe inflammation of the pancreas. Although rare, Trulicity may increase the risk of pancreatitis, which is characterized by severe abdominal pain that may radiate to the back and be accompanied by vomiting. Additional symptoms of pancreatitis include:

Inform your doctor if you experience any symptoms that persist. Your doctor may adjust your treatment depending on the severity and frequency of symptoms. Your doctor may remove Trulicity from your treatment if you experience pancreatitis.

If you experience symptoms of hypoglycemia, consume a glucose tablet, a sugary snack (raisins, sugar packet, jelly beans, hard candy), or a sugar drink (fruit juice or non-diet soda).

If patients are frequently experiencing hypoglycemia, they should inform their doctor immediately so they can adjust their treatment.

Thyroid Cancer

Trulicity carries a serious warning from the FDA regarding a potential side effect. This strongest warning, called a “boxed warning,” highlights the risk of thyroid cancer developing while using Trulicity.

It was found in animal testing in rats that this medication increased the risk of thyroid tumors and thyroid cancer. It is not known whether there is an increased risk of thyroid tumors from Trulicity in humans.

Do not take two doses within three days of each other. If you are not sure what to do, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

Overdose

If you take more Trulicity than your doctor told you to use, it can cause serious problems. You might feel very sick, throw up, or have low blood sugar. These symptoms can be dangerous and need quick medical attention.
