Acai and Dasiglucagon Hydrochloride

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

ANTIDIABETES DRUGS

Why this applies to Dasiglucagon Hydrochloride

Dasiglucagon Hydrochloride falls under ANTIDIABETES DRUGS — the group Acai interacts with.

Theoretically, taking acai with antidiabetes drugs might interfere with glycemic control.
Preliminary clinical research in healthy adults has shown that taking acai may increase or decrease levels of fasting blood glucose.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the thing to keep in mind: dasiglucagon (Zegalogue) isn't a daily diabetes pill. It's an emergency rescue injection you use when your blood sugar crashes dangerously low, and it works by telling your liver to dump stored sugar back into your blood. So the acai concern listed here, that it might nudge fasting blood sugar up or down, really applies to your everyday blood sugar control, not to that rescue moment.

Honestly, this is a theoretical flag based on how the body handles these things, and the early research is mixed. Eating acai as a food is no problem. If you take concentrated acai supplements regularly, just mention it to your pharmacist or doctor so they can keep an eye on your glucose readings.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Dasiglucagon Hydrochloride page

“Dasiglucagon (Zegalogue) is an emergency injection that rapidly raises blood sugar during a severe diabetic low, so a supplement list this large deserves genuine care. All 239 interacting ingredients act through blood glucose, and most of them lower it, deepening the very crashes this drug exists to reverse.”

About Dasiglucagon Injection

What Is Dasiglucagon Injection Used For?

Brand name: Zegalogue

Zegalogue (dasiglucagon) is used to treat severe hypoglycemia — dangerously low blood sugar — in adults and children aged 6 years and older who have diabetes. It is a rescue medication meant to be used in emergencies when a person cannot eat or drink to raise their blood sugar on their own.

Zegalogue is available as a subcutaneous (under-the-skin) injection and is given by a caregiver or the patient themselves as soon as severe hypoglycemia is recognized. Emergency medical help should be called immediately after using it.
