new recombinant form of glucagon
May 1999
Lilly is now marketing a new recombinant form of glucagon.
The new form is identical to human glucagon. It will replace the older product that was made from animal pancreas glands.
More diabetics should have glucagon on hand for treating severe hypoglycemia. It's an extremely valuable drug for raising blood sugar when patients can't take sugar orally.
