Trulicity is a GLP-1 agonist that is used to for:

• Type 2 diabetes (along with a healthy diet and regular exercise)
• Lowering the risk of major heart events (e.g., heart attack, stroke) in adults with Type 2 diabetes who have heart disease or risk factors for heart disease

Trulicity is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. It works by activating (turning on) the GLP-1 receptor in your body. This tells your body to release more insulin, stops the body from releasing more sugar into your bloodstream, and slows down digestion. These actions help control and maintain blood sugar levels in people with Type 2 diabetes.

• Trulicity is typically started at 0.75 mg injected under the skin once a week. After at least 4 weeks, your provider might raise the dose for additional blood sugar control. The maximum dose is 1.5 mg once weekly for children and 4.5 mg once weekly for adults
