Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and suicidality: A replication study using reports to the World Health Organization pharmacovigilance database (VigiBase®)

Reports of suicidality associated with glucagon-like peptide 1 agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have been reported to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We previously reported an increased reporting odds ratio (ROR) of some measures of suicidality with semaglutide and liraglutide using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Notwithstanding the increased ROR, causality between GLP-1 RAs exposure and any aspect of suicidality is not established.
