Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are commonly used for managing type 2 diabetes and obesity. These drugs improve glycemic control and promote weight loss, but they can cause gastrointestinal side effects such as gastroparesis and bowel obstruction, particularly in patients with preexisting GI motility issues. A 55-year-old woman with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and a history of small bowel obstruction developed severe abdominal pain and nausea after starting semaglutide.

Background/objective: Glycogenic hepatopathy is characterized by diffuse glycogen accumulation in hepatocytes that leads to hepatomegaly and elevated transaminases. Notably, the condition is reversible as improving glycemic control has been shown to resolve glycogenic hepatopathy and provide symptomatic relief.
Case Report: A 30-year-old female with longstanding and poorly-controlled type 1 diabetes presented to her primary care physician for a routine follow-up visit.

In older adults with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), tight glycaemic control (HbA1c 7%) can result in more harm than benefit, especially when using insulin or sulfonylureas. Older adults are at higher risk for adverse drug events, especially hypoglycaemia, which may cause falls, confusion and hospitalisations. This Therapeutic Letter evaluates the risks of tight glycaemic control in older adults with T2DM, focusing on deprescribing diabetes medications in those over 65, especially those with multimorbidity and polypharmacy.
