Drug Overview
Suglat (ipragliflozin; Astellas/Kotobuki Pharmaceutical/Merck & Co) is a competitive inhibitor of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2), approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Inhibition of SGLT-2 prevents reabsorption of glucose in the proximal tubule of the kidney, thus resulting in glucose excretion in the urine. As is the case with other SGLT-2 inhibitors, Suglat’s pharmacological effect is independent of insulin secretion. It can, therefore, be used as an add-on therapy to metformin, pioglitazone, and insulin.
