Cagrilintide slows gastric emptying as an amylin analog, causing food to remain in the stomach longer. Consuming large or heavy meals may increase the risk of nausea and vomiting.
Consider reducing the dosage. You may split the dose to 1 mg on Monday and 1 mg on Thursday. This approach can help your body adjust before increasing the dosage.
Choose smaller, more frequent meals rather than large portions to avoid overloading your stomach. Drink water throughout the day to stay hydrated.
Please avoid specific foods to help prevent nausea: greasy, fatty, dried, and spicy foods, as these can be difficult to digest and may worsen symptoms.
