Dasiglucagon, sold under the brand name Zegalogue, is a medication used to treat severe low blood sugar in people with diabetes.[1][2] It may be used in those who are at least six years old.[1] It is given by injection under the skin.[1]

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, and injection site pain.[1] Other side effects may include allergic reactions.[1] In people with a pheochromocytoma it may increase blood pressure while in people with an insulinoma it may result in worsening low blood sugar.[1] While there is no evidence of harm in pregnancy, such use has not been well studied.[1] It is a glucagon receptor agonist.[1]

Dasiglucagon was approved for medical use in the United States in 2021.[1] It is not approved in Europe or the United Kingdom as of 2022.[3] In the United States it costs about 320 USD per dose as of 2022.[4] Glucagon, in comparison, costs about 90 USD.[5]

Medical uses

Dasiglucagon is indicated for the treatment of severe hypoglycemia in people aged six years of age and older with diabetes.[1][6] It appears to be similar in effectiveness to glucagon.[7]

It may not work in those with low liver glycogen reserves such as in starvation.[8]

Dosage

It is used at a dose of 0.6 mg.[1] A second dose may be given after 15 minutes.[1]

Contraindications

Dasiglucagon is contraindicated in people with pheochromocytoma or insulinoma.[1]

History

It was designated an orphan drug in the USA in August 2017.[9]
