About Glucagen
Overview
Glucagen contains glucagon, a medicine that counteracts very low blood sugar. The supplied GVOKE label describes glucagon injection for treating severe hypoglycemia in adults and children aged two years and older with diabetes. Glucagon works to raise blood sugar.
What it treats
- Treatment of severe low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in adults and children aged 2 years and older with diabetes. - Temporary inhibition of gastrointestinal movement during radiologic examinations in adults, as a diagnostic aid.
Safety information
Side effects
The supplied glucagon label lists nausea, vomiting, headache and swelling at the injection site as common side effects in adults. In children, common side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, abdominal pain, low or high blood sugar, injection-site discomfort or reactions, and hives. Serious allergic reactions have been reported, including widespread rash and anaphylactic shock with breathing difficulties and low blood pressure. Seek emergency medical help for breathing difficulties or signs of a severe allergic reaction. Glucagon can cause a substantial rise in blood pressure in people with pheochromocytoma, a type of tumour; it must not be used in these patients. In people with insulinoma, it can cause excessive insulin release and low blood sugar. Contact a doctor immediately if low blood sugar develops after treatment. A skin rash called necrolytic migratory erythema has been reported during continuous glucagon infusion and resolved after glucagon was stopped. Contact a doctor if a new rash develops.
When to call your doctor
If symptoms are severe or getting worse quickly, seek emergency care rather than waiting.
Before taking this medicine
Do not use glucagon if you have pheochromocytoma, insulinoma, or a previous allergic reaction to glucagon or any ingredient in the injection. Pheochromocytoma can lead to a substantial rise in blood pressure, while insulinoma can cause low blood sugar after glucagon is given. Serious allergic reactions may include widespread rash, breathing difficulties and dangerously low blood pressure. Glucagon injected under the skin may not work for severe low blood sugar if the liver has insufficient stored glycogen. This can occur with starvation, adrenal insufficiency or long-standing low blood sugar. When glucagon is given intravenously as a diagnostic aid, it must not be used in people with glucagonoma because it may cause low blood sugar. This use also requires caution and blood sugar monitoring in people with diabetes. People with heart disease require cardiac monitoring because blood pressure, heart rate and the heart’s oxygen demand may increase.
Interactions
Tell your doctor if you take any of the following medicines: - Beta-blockers: Glucagon may temporarily increase your pulse and blood pressure. This may require treatment if you have coronary artery disease. - Insulin: Insulin works against glucagon’s effects. Blood glucose monitoring is needed when glucagon is used as a diagnostic aid in people receiving insulin. - Indomethacin: Glucagon may not raise blood glucose as expected and may instead cause low blood glucose. Blood glucose should be monitored during treatment. - Warfarin: Glucagon may increase warfarin’s blood-thinning effect. Monitoring for unusual bruising or bleeding is needed. - Anticholinergic medicines: The supplied label advises against combining these with glucagon used as a diagnostic aid because the combination further slows gut movement and increases the risk of gastrointestinal side effects.
Using Glucagen
