The use of glucagon in the termination of insulin coma therapy has been discussed. The advantages over previous techniques of termination were described. Clinical experience with 41 patients who had a total of 739 comas showed no untoward reactions with the use of glucagon. No permanent residual effects were noted, and only transitory reactions, such as delayed coma, muscular twitching and secondary comas were reported in six instances. It was demonstrated that glucagon is an effective, reliable and safe drug in the termination of insulin coma therapy. Its introduction as a therapeutic agent has demonstrated once more the many benefits which can be derived from basic medical research.
