Depression linked to oral semaglutide in a type 2 diabetes patient: dose-related return confirmed and treated with combined antidepressants

Updated

Abstract

Oral semaglutide is associated with a signal for depression and suicidal ideation in individual patients.

  • Large clinical trials have not shown increased psychiatric adverse events at the group level.
  • Pharmacovigilance databases and case reports indicate a potential risk of neuropsychiatric issues.
  • There is a suggestion of a dose-dependent onset for neuropsychiatric symptoms upon rechallenge.
  • No previous reports have described this association specifically for the oral formulation.
