Sergliflozin, a novel oral selective low-affinity sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT2) inhibitor, improves hyperglycemia by suppressing renal glucose reabsorption, in which SGLT2 participates as a dominant transporter. Its prodrug form, sergliflozin etabonate, is orally available and is converted to sergiflozin upon absorption. Development of sergliflozin has been discontinued in favor of remogliflozin.
