Abstract

It has previously been shown that intravenous and subcutaneous administration of glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 concomitant with intravenous glucose results in reactive hypoglycaemia in healthy subjects. Since GLP-1 is also effective in Type 2 diabetic patients and is presently being evaluated as a therapeutic agent in this disease, it is important to investigate whether GLP-1 can cause hypoglycaemia in such patients.
