Sotagliflozin is a drug being developed to lower blood sugar levels in type 1 diabetes by increasing the amount of sugars excreted in the urine. It is taken once a day tablet in conjunction with insulin to prevent large rises and falls in blood sugar levels. This may be especially useful for people who cannot control their blood sugar levels with insulin alone. Sotagliflozin is currently in clinical trials which have shown that sotagliflozin has the potential to reduce and control blood sugar levels when taken with insulin.
