This is a continuation of a long topic, addressed by post number rather than by page. Start at post 1.
A rodent toxicology finding underlying a contraindication is worth understanding, because it explains why the contraindication is narrow rather than broad.
If that is already documented somewhere, ignore me and link it.
Post #29 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit.
I would keep Conditions and the decision it usually gets used for separate in this thread. They are related and they are not the same question, and merging them is why the last one went badly.
No disagreement from me. Posting only so the question does not look ignored.
Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, or multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2, is the clearest contraindication in this class and it is specific rather than general.
