10Their mechanism is receptor-level rather than route-level: the same effects occur with an orally administered small-molecule agonist, which argues against a local gastrointestinal irritation explanation. Delayed [[Gastric emptying|gastric emptying]] and area postrema signalling are the proposed contributors.{{r|drucker2018}}10Their mechanism is receptor-level rather than route-level: the same effects occur with an orally administered small-molecule agonist, which argues against a local gastrointestinal irritation explanation.

+20Frequencies are from placebo-controlled trials and the placebo arms are not zero — nausea is reported by 10–20% of placebo participants in the same trials, so the attributable excess is smaller than the raw figure.{{r|wilding2021}}
