    If you still have issues with constipation, go get some:

    • High Absorption Magnesium Citrate 250mg
    • High Absorption Potassium supplements

    Why it matters:

    GPL-1 drugs deprive your body of some nutrients and to make things worse, normal vitamins also are not fully absorbed for the same reason you are losing weight.

    The constipation is a direct result of your body telling you it’s missing certain vitamins and the magnesium citrate plus potassium will help this.

    I’d recommend taking it once a week. usually the day after your shot and see if it helps. Up the dosage if it doesn’t but be careful as too much (daily intake) can result in diarrhea.

    sources:

    And as always, don’t take advise from Internet strangers. Instead, use this information to approach your doctor and ask them.

      Actually I already have to take salt tablets for another medical issue. But Wegovy certainly didn’t help that issue.
