Ginger is added to aid with nausea which is a common side effect of GLP-1s
It also bears saying that the risks documented above are the risks of pharmaceutical-grade retatrutide, administered under close medical supervision, in a monitored trial, with dose escalation over months
These drugs include semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus), dulaglutide (Trulicity), liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda), and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound)though tirzepatide is actually a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist
