==Overview==
'''Diazoxide''' ([[International Nonproprietary Name|INN]]; brand name '''Proglycem'''<ref>[http://www.drugs.com/cons/diazoxide.html Diazoxide], drugs.com</ref>) is a [[potassium channel]] activator, which causes local relaxation in [[smooth muscle]] by increasing membrane [[Semipermeable membrane|permeability]] to potassium [[ion]]s. This switches off voltage-gated [[calcium]] ion channels which inhibits the generation of an [[action potential]].
