PRESCRIPTION DRUG
Diazoxide Oral Suspension is useful in the management of hypoglycemia due to hyperinsulinism associated with the following conditions: - Adults: Inoperable islet cell adenoma or carcinoma, or extrapancreatic malignancy. - Infants and Children: Leucine sensitivity, islet cell hyperplasia, nesidioblastosis, extrapancreatic malignancy, islet cell adenoma, or adenomatosis. Diazoxide Oral Suspension may be used preoperatively as a temporary measure, and postoperatively, if hypoglycemia persists. Diazoxide should be used only after a diagnosis of hypoglycemia due to one of the above conditions has been definitely established. When other specific medical therapy or surgical management either has been unsuccessful or is not feasible, treatment with diazoxide should be considered. The use of diazoxide for functional hypoglycemia is contraindicated. The drug should not be used in patients hypersensitive to diazoxide or to other thiazides unless the potential benefits outweigh the possible risks.

Abbreviated New Drug Application
DIAZOXIDE- DIAZOXIDE SUSPENSION E5 PHARMA, LLC ---------- DIAZOXIDE ORAL SUSPENSION, USP FOR ORAL ADMINISTRATION RX ONLY DESCRIPTION Diazoxide is a nondiuretic benzothiadiazine derivative taken orally for the management of symptomatic hypoglycemia. Diazoxide Oral Suspension, USP contains 50 mg of diazoxide, USP in each milliliter and has a chocolate-mint flavor; alcohol content is approximately 7.25%. Other ingredients: Sorbitol solution, chocolate mint flavor, propylene glycol, magnesium aluminum silicate, carboxymethycellulose sodium, sodium benzoate, methylparaben, poloxamer 188, propylparaben, and purified water. Hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide may be added to adjust pH. Diazoxide has the following structural formula: Diazoxide is 7-chloro-3-methyl-2_H_-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxide with the empirical formula C H ClN O S and the molecular weight 230.7. It is a white powder practically insoluble to sparingly soluble in water. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Diazoxide administered orally produces a prompt dose-related increase in blood glucose level, due primarily to an inhibition of insulin release from the pancreas, and also to an extrapancreatic effect. The hyperglycemic effect begins within an hour and generally lasts no more than eight hours in the presence of normal renal function. Diazoxide decreases the excretion of sodium and water, resulting in fluid retention which 8 7 2 2 may be clinically significant. The hypotensive effect of diazoxide on blood pressure is usually not marked with the oral preparation. This contrasts with the intravenous preparation of diazoxide (see _ADVERSE REACTIONS_). Other pharmacologic actions of diazoxide include increased pulse rate; increased serum uric acid levels due to decreased excretion; increased serum levels of free fatty acids' decreased chloride excretion; decreased para-aminohippuric acid; (PAH) clearance with no appreciable effect on glomerular filtration rate. The concomitant administration of a benzothiazide diuretic may intensify the hyperglycemic and hyperu Leer el documento completo
