PROGLICEM 25
PROGLICEM 25 — a drug for the treatment of abnormally low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia).
PROGLICEM 25 is recommended for the treatment of abnormally low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia) of various origins:
– leucine-sensitive hypoglycemia;
Composition:
Active ingredient – diazoxide One hard capsule of PROGLICEM 25 contains 25 mg of diazoxide. Other ingredients: lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate (Ph.Eur.) and gelatin.
Appendix:
Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist. You should only take PROGLICEM 25 if your hypoglycemia is due to one of the reasons listed above. Long-term therapy with PROGLICEM 25 can only be carried out in life-threatening conditions for medical reasons and in cases where other therapeutic measures or drugs are ineffective or cannot be used.
You should be monitored closely at the beginning of therapy. The clinical response to PROGLICEM 25 and blood glucose levels should be closely monitored until your condition is sufficiently stabilized. In most cases this will happen within a few days. If therapy with PROGLICEM 25 does not produce an effect within 2-3 weeks, treatment should be discontinued.
Unless otherwise prescribed by a doctor, the initial dosage can be started with a daily dose of 5 mg/kg body weight. However, this dose can be increased to raise blood sugar levels to normal levels and solve the problem of low blood sugar.
The total dose should be administered in 2-3 doses with an interval of 8-12 hours.
Children with leucine-sensitive hypoglycemia (low blood sugar caused by leucine) may require 15 to 20 mg of diazoxide per kg of body weight. This total dose should also be divided into 2-3 separate doses during the day.
25 mg capsules are especially suitable for precise dosing in children. In adults, 25 mg and 100 mg diazoxide capsules can be combined to achieve the most precise therapeutic adjustment.
PROGLICEM 25 capsules cannot be taken lying down.
