Abstract

BACKGROUND: ) exposure and if multiple placebo tablets co-administered with oral semaglutide affect semaglutide exposure. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: In this one-sequence crossover trial, 45 healthy subjects received levothyroxine (600 μg single-dose) alone, or with concomitant SNAC 300 mg or concomitant oral semaglutide 14 mg at steady-state. Subjects also received oral semaglutide 14 mg at steady-state alone or with five placebo tablets once-daily for 5 weeks. RESULTS: also decreased. CONCLUSIONS: Levothyroxine pharmacokinetics were influenced by co-administration with oral semaglutide. Monitoring of thyroid parameters should be considered when treating patients with both oral semaglutide and levothyroxine. Oral semaglutide exposure was influenced by co-administration with multiple tablets, which is addressed in the dosing guidance.
