What this study is about

Nausea is a common side effect of GLP-1RA medications used for treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Current recommendations for nausea relief include the use of dietary changes and prescription anti-emetics. Acupressure wristbands Sea-Band are FDA cleared for nausea relief in other indications such as motion sickness, morning sickness in pregnancy, post-operative nausea, chemotherapy associated nausea. We hypothesized that acupressure wristbands could alleviate nausea in persons taking GLP-1RA.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.
