Also called: Lixisenatide
Lixisenatide is a diabetes medicine. It belongs to a group of drugs that act like a natural body chemical called GLP-1. Doctors use it to help people with type 2 diabetes lower their blood sugar. It is given as a shot, not a pill.
This medicine works by copying GLP-1, a signal the gut sends after eating. The signal tells the body to release more insulin, which brings blood sugar down. It also slows how fast food leaves the stomach. In a big study from the UK, people with diabetes and lung problems who took drugs like this one had fewer asthma or COPD flare-ups compared with those on older diabetes pills, though this drug was taken by only a small number of patients in that study.
Scientists are still learning about this medicine. The lung benefit finding is new and was shown at a science meeting, so it needs more checking. The drug is mainly proven to lower blood sugar. Like similar drugs, it can cause stomach upset and nausea. Talk to a doctor before starting or stopping any diabetes medicine.

SubQ
mg vs mcg: one milligram (mg) equals 1,000 micrograms (mcg) — multiply by 1,000 going from mg to mcg, divide by 1,000 going from mcg to mg. Mixing the two up is a thousand-fold dosing error: 1 mg taken instead of 1 mcg is a 1,000× overdose; 1 mcg instead of 1 mg is a 1,000× underdose. Always double-check the unit label and the decimal place.
