This is a BRIEF SUMMARY of important information about Victoza®


. This information does not take the

will cause thyroid tumors or a type


of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) in people. If MTC occurs, it may lead to death if not detected and treated early. Do not take Victoza®
