Diazoxide, sold under the brand name Proglycem and others, is a medication used to treat low blood sugar due to a number of specific causes.^[2] This includes islet cell tumors that cannot be removed and leucine sensitivity.^[2] It can also be used in refractory cases of sulfonylurea toxicity.^[3] It is generally taken by mouth.^[2]

Common side effects include high blood sugar, fluid retention, low blood platelets, a fast heart rate, increased hair growth, and nausea.^[2] Other severe side effects include pulmonary hypertension and heart failure.^[2] It is chemically similar to thiazide diuretics.^[2] It works by decreasing insulin release from the pancreas and increasing glucose release by the liver.^[2]

Diazoxide was approved for medical use in the United States in 1973.^[2] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.^[4]^[5] It is available as a generic medication.^[6]
