Suicide and Self-Harm Events With GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Adults With Diabetes or Obesity

Abstract

There is unlikely to be an increase in the very low incidence of suicide-related adverse events among individuals receiving GLP-1 RAs within the context of RCTs. While these findings may further ease concerns about these adverse effects, continued monitoring is warranted to identify particular patients who may be at risk as extended use of GLP-1 RAs expands.
