In male and female rats, dulaglutide causes a dose-related and treatment-duration-dependent increase in the incidence of thyroid C-cell tumors (adenomas and carcinomas) after lifetime exposure. It is unknown whether Trulicity causes thyroid C-cell tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma ...
Patients receiving Trulicity in combination with an insulin secretagogue (e.g., sulfonylurea) or insulin may have an increased risk of hypoglycemia, including severe hypoglycemia [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1) and Drug Interactions ( 7 )].
Use of Trulicity may be associated with gastrointestinal adverse reactions, sometimes severe [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )]. Trulicity has not been studied in patients with severe gastrointestinal disease, including severe gastroparesis, and is therefore not recommended in these patients.
Because clinical studies are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical studies of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical studies of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
Trulicity delays gastric emptying and thus has the potential to reduce the rate of absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications. The delay in gastric emptying is dose-dependent but is attenuated with the recommended dose escalation to higher doses of Trulicity [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 )]. The delay is largest after the first dose and diminishes with subsequent doses. In clinical pharmacology studies, Trulicity 1.5 mg did not affect the absorption of the tested orally administered medications to a clinically relevant degree [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. There is limited experience with the use of concomitant medications in clinical trials with Trulicity doses of 3 mg and 4.5 mg.
Poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy increases the maternal risk for diabetic ketoacidosis, pre-eclampsia, spontaneous abortions, preterm delivery and delivery complications. Poorly controlled diabetes increases the fetal risk for major birth defects, stillbirth, and macrosomia-related morbidity.
There are no data on the presence of dulaglutide in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The presence of dulaglutide in milk of treated lactating animals was not determined. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for Trulicity and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from Trulicity or from the underlying maternal condition.

When using 96372, it is important to specify the substance or drug being injected. For example, a B12 injection would be entered with CPT Code: 96372 (SC/IM) and HCPCS II Code: J3420 (Vitamin B-12 up to 1,000 mcg). For coders or medical billers, be aware that when setting up your HCPCS II medication codes, you must also enter national drug codes (NDC) information in order for claims to be accepted. The NDC is a universal number that identifies a drug and consists of 11 digits in a 5-4-2 format. If the NDC contains less than 11 digits, zeroes must be entered in front of the numbers. For example: 0XXXX-XXXX-XX or XXXXX-0XXX-XX. For more information on NDC visit the US Food and Drug administration at www.fda.gov/Drugs/informationOnDrugs. Vaccines do not require NDC numbers.
