It has to be reconstituted from lyophilized glucagon because in solution it quickly aggregates to form insoluble fibrils, see [[6NZN]]<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. | ||
