Gallstones while on Reta, coincidence or possible side effect

I started taking reta about three weeks ago. The first week went really well and I lost about 3 kg. Over the past two weeks my weight has been a bit stuck, but I’m okay with that because I’m still noticing some inch loss.

However, two days ago I was diagnosed with gallstones. My doctor prescribed oral medication and hopes the stones may dissolve over time.

Now I’m wondering if I should stop taking reta for now or continue as usual. Has anyone experienced gallstones while on reta or other GLP-1–type medications? Could reta contribute to this, or is it more likely related to the weight loss itself?

I’d really appreciate hearing about others’ experiences or what your doctors advised in a similar situation.
