Trulicity Side Effects - Anyone Else Experiencing These?

On Trulicity for a few months now. Definitely losing weight but some side effects I am wondering about.... 1. Yeast build up and now taking a pill for that every week. 2. Having issues eating meat now and I use to love all meat. I would almost say it's like when I spell meat or even eat it I want to throw up. 3. Bowel issues sense taking this too. The only time I seem to have a bowel movement is the end of the week when it's time to take the shot again. Anyone else have similar issues?

My sister was just telling me about it. I'm not sure of the side effects but I was diagnosed diabetes type 2 and heard it was really beneficial in weight loss.

I'm also on Trulicity and I've experienced similar side effects. For the yeast build up, a weekly pill seems to be helping. As for the meat aversion, I've noticed the same thing! It feels like my body is suddenly super sensitive to meat. I've started opting for plant-based alternatives and it's been okay. And with the bowel issues I've found that increasing my water intake and taking a probiotic supplement has helped a bit.

I've started eating more fish and eggs instead. And the bowel issues... well, let's just say I'm really familiar with the bathroom at this point. I've talked to my doctor about it and they've suggested upping my fiber intake, so we'll see if that helps
