New side effect of GLP-1 drugs: Study links weight-loss drugs to chronic cough
New research suggests GLP-1 drugs, used for weight loss and diabetes, may cause chronic cough. A study found patients on these medications had a higher risk of developing a cough lasting over eight weeks. They were also more prone to GERD. Further studies are needed to confirm this link. This finding adds to known side effects of these popular drugs.
