Why do I get constipation on semaglutide and how do I fix it?
Semaglutide & GLP-1 weight loss information for Atlanta and Georgia.
GLP‑1 medications can slow digestion, which may cause constipation. Increasing water intake, adding fiber gradually, walking daily, and using magnesium or stool softeners (if approved by your provider) can help. If constipation is persistent or severe, contact your provider to adjust your plan.
