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

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

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