Summary: Yes, Rybelsus (semaglutide) can cause acid reflux as a recognised gastrointestinal side effect due to delayed gastric emptying
However, these medications may be covered under Medicare for type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular risk reduction (Wegovy), or obstructive sleep apnea (Zepbound)
Before starting the medication, your doctor should take a comprehensive medical history, including any symptoms of hormonal imbalance, and may arrange baseline blood tests including HbA1c, lipid profile, liver and kidney function, and in some cases, hormone levels
If you stopped semaglutide three months ago and have regained some weight, that is normal
Switching to 20mg/ml from another concentration If you have been using tirzepatide at a different concentration and your pharmacy switches you to 20mg/ml, this transition requires careful attention
