native, moderated, evidence-firstOn any peptide/GLP-1: severe persistent abdominal pain (think pancreatitis), yellowing skin/eyes (liver), severe vision changes, chest pain, severe injection-site reaction, signs of allergic reaction (hives, breathing trouble). When in doubt, stop and call. This is general safety info, not medical advice.
A common worry on GLP-1/GIP agonists is lean mass loss along with fat. SURMOUNT body-comp sub-analyses suggest the proportion of lean mass loss is roughly similar to lifestyle-only weight loss, but absolute lean loss can be larger because total loss is bigger. Resistance training + adequate protein (1.6-2.2g/kg) appears protective.
