Drug Interactions
Insulin: Reacts antagonistically towards glucagon.
Indomethacin: Glucagon may lose its ability to raise blood glucose or paradoxically may even produce hypoglycaemia.
Warfarin: Glucagon may increase the anticoagulant effect of warfarin.
Beta-blockers: Patients taking beta-blockers might be expected to have a greater increase in both pulse and blood pressure, an increase of which will be temporary because of glucagon's short half-life. The increase in blood pressure and pulse rate may require therapy in patients with coronary artery disease.
