or plan to breastfeed. It is unknown if Victoza® will
harm your unborn baby or if Victoza® passes into your
breast milk.
Your risk for getting hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar,
is higher if you take Victoza® with another medicine
that can cause low blood sugar, such as a sulfonylurea.
The dose of your sulfonylurea medicine may need to
be lowered while taking Victoza®.
The most common side effects with Victoza® include
headache, nausea, diarrhea, and resistance to
liraglutide (antibody formation). Nausea is most
common when first starting Victoza®, but decreases
over time in most people. Immune system-related
reactions, including hives, were more common
in people treated with Victoza® compared to
people treated with other diabetes drugs in
medical studies.
