==Indications and Usage==
 
 
PROGLYCEM® (ORAL DIAZOXIDE) is useful in the management of [[hypoglycemia ]]due to [[hyperinsulinism]] associated with the following conditions:
 
Adults: Inoperable islet cell [[adenoma]] or [[carcinoma]], or [[extrapancreatic malignancy]].
 
Infants and Children: Leucine sensitivity, islet cell [[hyperplasia]], [[nesidioblastosis]], extrapancreatic malignancy, islet cell [[adenoma]], or adenomatosis. PROGLYCEM®may be used preoperatively as a temporary measure, and postoperatively, if [[hypoglycemia ]]persists.
 
 
PROGLYCEM® should be used only after a diagnosis of [[hypoglycemia]] due to one of the above conditions has been definitely established. When other specific medical therapy or surgical management either has been unsuccessful or is not feasible, treatment with PROGLYCEM® should be considered.<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>
