Propranolol-associated hypoglycemia in patients on maintenance hemodialysis.

Propranolol is widely employed in hemodialysis patients for the control of renin-dependent hypertension. Infrequent reports have linked hypoglycemia and propranolol, especially in complex situations such as malnutrition, anesthesia, and excessive insulin use. Three patients on maintenance hemodialysis taking propranolol developed severe hypoglycemia resulting in cardiac arrest. The life-threatening hypoglycemia occurred without apparent precipitating cause and unaccompanied by the classical signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia. These three cases suggest that propranolol in a setting of chronic renal failure and dialysis may bring about severe hypoglycemia, a complication previously unsuspected.
