Abstract
Initially developed as medications for diabetes mellitus, GLP-1 agonists have gained much popularity in the treatment of obesity and weight loss. The present case describes a 69-year-old woman with a history of peptic ulcer and use of NSAIDs, who presented with abdominal pain and oral intolerance refractory to conventional management, for which an upper digestive endoscopy was performed, diagnosing severe gastroparesis. Asking more about the story, revealed surreptitious use of semaglutide. She continued with supportive therapy and the symptoms resolved spontaneously. The present case report aims to warn of the potential risks of the use of GLP-1 analogues in the context of endoscopy with sedation.
