Fatigue was recorded in the phase 2 obesity trial: 3 of 70 placebo participants and 6 of 62 in the arm that stepped up to the top dose reported it. These are small counts and cannot settle the question.

Short answer

Fatigue was recorded in the phase 2 obesity trial: 3 of 70 placebo participants and 6 of 62 in the arm that stepped up to the top dose reported it. These are small counts and cannot settle the question.[1]

Group EG000 in the phase 2 obesity registry record is the placebo arm.[1]

Group EG006 in the phase 2 obesity registry record is the arm stepped up from 2 mg to 12 mg.[1]

What the second phase 2 trial shows

In the phase 2 trial in type 2 diabetes, nobody on placebo reported fatigue (0 of 45), against 3 of 46 in the top-dose step-up arm.[2]

Group EG007 in the phase 2 diabetes registry record is the arm stepped up from 2 mg to 12 mg.[2]
