What is the likelihood of developing pancreatitis if you are on victoza (liraglutide) but are not diabetic?my endo put me on it for weight loss
A doctor has provided 1 answer
We are not...: Convinced that the drug increases risk of pancreatitis in anyone based on retrospective review of large healthcare databases. Fda agrees in that, even with recent reports, recommends people on agent should keep taking the medicine unless having abdominal pain.
