Dulaglutide, also known as Trulicity, is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It is a once-weekly injectable prescription medicine that improves blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. Dulaglutide is used together with diet and exercise to control blood sugar. It is a subcutaneous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist designed using recombinant DNA technology. It is similar to a natural hormone in the body known as incretin, and it works by causing insulin release in response to high blood sugar levels. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, decreased appetite, indigestion, and fatigue. Dulaglutide should only be used under the guidance and supervision of a healthcare provider.
