About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Glucagon 1mg Injection
Glucagon 1mg Injection is a rapid acting medication used to treat dangerously low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). It rapidly raises blood glucose levels by mimicking the hormone glucagon, which naturally occurs in the body and helps stimulate glucose release from the liver.
Key Features:
* Dosage: Available as a 1mg solution for injection.
* Administration: This medication is administered via subcutaneous injection. Consult your healthcare professional for proper technique and dosage instructions.
* Usage: Glucagon is suitable for individuals with severe hypoglycemia unresponsive to oral glucose administration. It's critical for use in cases of diabetic ketoacidosis or insulin overdose.
* Safety: While generally safe, potential side effects can include nausea, vomiting, and allergic reactions.
Important Note: This medication should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Self-medication is dangerous and may lead to further complications. Consult your doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

About Glucagon
Glucagon is a hormone used to treat severe hypoglycemia in diabetic patients. It works by stimulating the liver to convert glycogen into glucose, thereby raising blood sugar levels. Glucagon is effective in emergency situations where rapid elevation of blood glucose is needed. Common side effects may include nausea and injection site reactions, but these usually resolve over time. In summary, Glucagon is crucial for managing severe low blood sugar episodes.
How It Works
Glucagon activates glycogen phosphorylase in the liver, promoting glycogenolysis and increasing blood glucose levels.
