Wednesday Q&A. Q: I want to know if anyone with Addison's is taking Tirzepatide or if people with Addison's can take it? A: Tirzepatide is used to treat obesity and type 2 diabetes. It works by increasing insulin secretion, decreasing glucagon secretion, increasing insulin sensitivity, and delaying gastric emptying. There is no specific contraindication to this drug in the setting of Addison's disease, but there is a lot to consider before using it. An endocrinologist should be the one to prescribe and monitor it. The drug may cause hypoglycemia which can overlap with an effect from Addison's. Because GI side effects are common, including nausea and vomiting, these can be serious issues with Addison's. The drug cannot be used by anyone with type 1 diabetes, where insulin is absent, so it is critical to assess the etiology of any coexisting diabetes. Dr. Margulies, Medical Director of NADF. www.NADF.us
Can people with #Addisons take Tirzepatide? Dr. Margulies advises caution and consideration in this Wednesday's Q&A.

Wednesday Q&A. Q: I have Addison’s Disease and notice an impact in my fatigue during different points of my cycle. I’m curious how my condition will impact my perimenopause and menopause when the time comes. See next slide for answer. www.NADF.us.
Wednesday Q&A. See previous slide for question. A: Addison's disease will not affect the timing of menopause or the severity of menopausal symptoms like hot flushes, sleep disturbance, weight changes, mood swings, and changes in sex drive. However, since these symptoms and physical changes may impact one's sense of well being and energy, there may be times when a slight temporary adjustment in steroid dosing can be useful. It is important to avoid overuse of hydrocortisone extra dosing to prevent unnecessary weight gain. If menopausal symptoms are severe, discuss hormone replacement therapy with your gynecologist. If it is felt to be appropriate for you, Addison's disease is not a contraindication. HRT will usually not require changing the hydrocortisone regimen. In fact, it may help to stabilize the dosing by reducing the swings of menopause. Dr. Margulies, Medical Director of NADF. www.NADF.us
This Wednesday Q + A concerns the impact of #AddisonsDisease on #perimenopause and #menopause. Dr. Margulies advises on this complex issue.
