Glucagon is injected in cases of severe glycemia<ref>PMID:15793249</ref>.  It has to be reconstituted from lyophilized glucagon because in solution it quickly aggregates to form <scene name='46/460279/Fibrill/1'>insoluble fibrils</scene><ref>PMID:31235909</ref>. Overdose of β blockers is treated with GLCas well as cases of   Epinephrin-resistant low blood pressure.  Pancreatic tumors may cause high levels of GLC.
