==Overdosage==
 
An overdosage of PROGLYCEM® causes marked hyperglycemia which may be associated with [[ketoacidosis]]. It will respond to prompt [[insulin]] administration and restoration of fluid and electrolyte balance. Because of the drug's long half-life (approximately 30 hours), the symptoms of overdosage require prolonged surveillance for periods up to seven days until the blood sugar level stabilizes within the normal range. One investigator reported successful lowering of diazoxide blood levels by peritoneal dialysis in one patient and by [[hemodialysis]] in another.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = PROGLYCEM (DIAZOXIDE) SUSPENSION [TEVA GLOBAL RESPIRATORY RESEARCH LLC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=b16c7832-2fd9-49af-b923-1dc0d91fd6e2 | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = 26 February 2014 }}</ref>
