Gastrointestinal symptoms, including nausea, vomiting, and altered bowel habits, are common adverse effects of #GLP1 receptor agonist therapy. A new case series presents a unique paradox where GLP-1 RA therapy improved quality of life and resolved diarrhea in two women with irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) who were taking #semaglutide and #tirzepatide for weight loss. The findings from these two cases warrant further evaluation of GLP-1 RAs as a therapeutic option for some patients with IBS-D. bit.ly/4fcDSzJ @AHAScience #AHAJournals
