How is Zegalogue (zomegatv) given?

Zegalogue is administered as an injection under the skin (subcutaneous) [1].

What device is used to give it?

Zegalogue comes as a prefilled injector that you activate to deliver the dose subcutaneously [1].

Who can give it, and where?

It is intended to be given by a caregiver or healthcare professional when the person with hypoglycemia needs treatment [1]. The injection is given under the skin, typically on the upper arm, thigh, or abdomen (site rotation is generally used for injections) [1].

How quickly does it work after a dose?

Zegalogue is designed to raise blood glucose after severe hypoglycemia, with improvement expected as the glucagon receptor agonist acts in the body [1]. Exact timing can vary by patient and circumstances.
