Abstract : Aims: To evaluate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of different doses of glucagon administered subcutaneously (s.c.) at different blood glucose levels. Methods: This study was an open‐label, randomized, three‐period, cross‐over experiment in 6 patients with type 1 diabetes. During each of the three periods, different blood glucose levels were established in four consecutive steps (8, 6, 4 and 2.8 mmol/l) and glucagon was given at each blood glucose level in doses from 0.11 to 0.44 mg and 0.33, 0.66 and 1 mg at the lowest glucose concentration. Results: Maximum glucagon concentration and area under the curve increased with increasing glucagon dose. Maximum glucagon concentration was reached after 10–20 min. Glucagon raised blood glucose in a dose‐dependent manner at different baseline blood glucose levels. The median glucose excursion ranged from 2.6 to 6.2 mmol/l. Time to maximum glucose concentration was dose‐dependent for the glucagon doses at 2.8 mmol/l, with median values from 40 to 80 min. Conclusions: Glucagon administered s.c. produces a stable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic response at lower doses than the usual rescue dose and across a range of hypo‐ to hyperglycaemic blood glucose levels. This supports the use of small glucagon doses in the artificial pancreas to correct and prevent hypoglycaemia.
