Administration of dextrose intravenously was required to maintain the blood glucose concentration normally for 5 days. Moreover, hypokalemia, hypophosphatemia, and pypomagnesemia were also seen for 24 hours after insulin injection. The serum phosphorus and magnesium concentrations decreased to nadirs of 1.6 mg/dl and 1.6 mg/dl respectively 7 hours after insulin injection. Electrolyte disorders other than hypokalemia may be induced in hypoglycemic patients by massive insulin overdose., 金沢大学附属病院 リウマチ・膠原病・腎臓内科}, pages = {55--57}, title = {Electrolyte disorders following massive insulin overdose in a patient with type 2 diabetes}, volume = {39}, year = {2000} }
