The side effects are no different than other vaccines. In fact any drug used for treatment has side effects.
You might have seen advertising for Rybelsus on TV and in magazines. It is used by thousands with Type 2 diabetes who want to improve their blood sugar.
RYBELSUS® may cause serious side effects, including:
*Possible thyroid tumors, including cancer. Tell your healthcare provider if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer. In studies with rodents, RYBELSUS® and medicines that work like RYBELSUS® caused thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer. It is not known if RYBELSUS® will cause thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in people.
*Inflammation of your pancreas (pancreatitis)
*Changes in vision.
*Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Your risk for getting low blood sugar may be higher if you use RYBELSUS® with another medicine that can cause low blood sugar, such as a sulfonylurea or insulin. Signs and symptoms of low blood sugar may include: dizziness or lightheadedness, blurred vision, anxiety, irritability or mood changes, sweating, slurred speech, hunger, confusion or drowsiness, shakiness, weakness, headache, fast heartbeat, and feeling jittery.
*Kidney problems (kidney failure). In people who have kidney problems, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting may cause a loss of fluids (dehydration), which may cause kidney problems to get worse. It is important for you to drink fluids to help reduce your chance of dehydration.
*Serious allergic reactions. Stop using RYBELSUS® and get medical help right away, if you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat; problems breathing or swallowing; severe rash or itching; fainting or feeling dizzy; or very rapid heartbeat.
*The most common side effects of RYBELSUS® may include nausea, stomach (abdominal) pain, diarrhea, decreased appetite, vomiting, and constipation. Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are most common when you first start RYBELSUS®.
Bottom line: Medicine deals with the unpredictable nature of the human body.
"Medicine" is doing a very poor job of "dealing" with this.
Here we are a year an a half later and "medicine" has nothing except a couple of leaky vaccines to offer the masses.
Nope, no therapeutics. No advice like take your vitamins, get outside, get sunlight, get exercise, lose weight, get enough sleep.
"Medicine" says wear your masks, social distance and come to the hospital if your blood oxygen drops too far.
"Medicine" has done a fine job.
