Understanding Proglycem :
Proglycem (diazoxide) is non-diuretic benzothiadiazide used to suppress insulin secretion in hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. Activates pancreatic β-cell K-ATP channels, hyperpolarizing membrane and reducing insulin release.
How Proglycem Works:
Hyperinsulinism causes inappropriate insulin secretion and severe hypoglycemia — inoperable insulinoma, congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI), nesidioblastosis, post-bariatric hypoglycemia.
Diazoxide opens K-ATP channels in β-cells — opposes insulin secretion. Effective for most causes but congenital hyperinsulinism from certain K-ATP gene mutations may not respond.
Form and use:
Proglycem oral suspension 3–8 mg/kg/day in 2–3 divided doses. Adjust to glucose response.
Generic availability:
Generic diazoxide oral suspension available. Other options for hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia: octreotide (Sandostatin — generic), nifedipine (off-label), surgery for resectable lesions, dietary management (frequent feedings, continuous gastric feedings), glucagon for acute episodes.
Warnings:
Sodium and fluid retention (often requires diuretic), hyperglycemia/diabetes, hirsutism, neutropenia (rare), pulmonary hypertension in neonates (especially newborns receiving diazoxide for CHI), eosinophilia.
