The use of GLP-1 receptor agonists has been associated with rare reports of acute pancreatitis. Other antidiabetic therapies should be considered in patients with a previous history of pancreatitis, although it is not known if they are at increased risk. Patients receiving treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists should be observed carefully for signs and symptoms of pancreatitis. If this diagnosis is suspected, the treatment should be discontinued immediately and appropriate management should be initiated. Treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists should be permanently discontinued if pancreatitis is confirmed.
