Summary

Somatostatin analogues are a last resort for medical intervention in hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HH). The hypoglycemia is very debilitating and can be even life threatening. There is limited experience with pasireotide in hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (only one publication); there is more experience with octreotide, both in adults and children successful interventions with octreotide in hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia have been published. Pasireotide via its different somatostatin receptor binding profile has clear effects on insulin, glucagon and incretin secretion and can ultimately lead to hyperglycemia. This mode of action (especially the effects on insulin and incretin secretion) could be very useful in the setting of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia.
