Proglycem and it's generic diazoxide can sometimes be very hard to find or order. That is also true for human patients. it is not always readily available. I even know one family which moved to a different state where there are more compounding pharmacies because of their young human daughter's need for a constant supply since steroids do not work for her congenital hypogylcemia. The best chance of finding it is typically from a compounding pharmacy. There is a list in here: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/ferrethealth/files/comp_pharm.html [Link modified.
