Some patients may develop psychiatric symptoms after stopping GLP-1 weight-loss medications, including hallucinations, psychotic disorders, and mania. However, reports of two cases—a 61-year-old man and a 52-year-old man—do not prove that stopping treatment was the direct cause. Their symptoms appeared one or two months after they stopped taking the medication. One man had lost about 45 kilograms over six months, and both required psychiatric care and medication. The researchers say the drugs’ effects on brain circuits and neurotransmitters may be relevant, and call for further research and psychiatric monitoring of patients who stop treatment.
