diazoxide and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

diazoxide has been researched along with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in 16 studies

Diazoxide: A benzothiadiazine derivative that is a peripheral vasodilator used for hypertensive emergencies. It lacks diuretic effect, apparently because it lacks a sulfonamide group.
diazoxide : A benzothiadiazine that is the S,S-dioxide of 2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine which is substituted at position 3 by a methyl group and at position 7 by chlorine. A peripheral vasodilator, it increases the concentration of glucose in the plasma and inhibits the secretion of insulin by the beta- cells of the pancreas. It is used orally in the management of intractable hypoglycaemia and intravenously in the management of hypertensive emergencies.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A complex disorder characterized by infertility, HIRSUTISM; OBESITY; and various menstrual disturbances such as OLIGOMENORRHEA; AMENORRHEA; ANOVULATION. Polycystic ovary syndrome is usually associated with bilateral enlarged ovaries studded with atretic follicles, not with cysts. The term, polycystic ovary, is misleading.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We conducted a pilot project to test the hypothesis that decreasing insulin concentrations with diazoxide would affect parameters of vitamin D in obese women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)."9.16A pilot study: effects of decreasing serum insulin with diazoxide on vitamin D levels in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome. ( Bachmann, LM; Cheang, KI; Downs, RW; Nestler, JE; Reilly, ER, 2012)
"Obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) manifest impaired insulin-stimulated release of a d-chiro-inositol-containing inositolphosphoglycan (DCI-IPG) insulin mediator during oral glucose tolerance testing (OGTT), which appears to be restored by the administration of metformin."9.14Uncoupling between insulin and release of a D-chiro-inositol-containing inositolphosphoglycan mediator of insulin action in obese women With polycystic ovary syndrome. ( Apridonidze, T; Baillargeon, JP; Iuorno, MJ; Nestler, JE, 2010)
"To test the hypothesis that insulin plays a role in the hyperandrogenism of obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome, we conducted a prospective study in which the androgen status of five obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome was assessed on two occasions: before and after 10 days of oral diazoxide (100 mg, three times daily) administration."7.67Suppression of serum insulin by diazoxide reduces serum testosterone levels in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome. ( Barlascini, CO; Blackard, WG; Clore, JN; Matt, DW; Nestler, JE; Plymate, SR; Steingold, KA, 1989)
"Diazoxide 300 mg daily was given to all women starting after the end of the OGTT for 10 days."5.30Leptin levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome before and after treatment with diazoxide. ( Blum, W; Jacobs, H; Kaltsas, TT; Krassas, GE; Messinis, I; Pontikides, N, 1998)

( Apridonidze, T; Baillargeon, JP; Iuorno, MJ; Nestler, JE, 2010)
"Suppression of serum insulin levels with diazoxide is associated with a decrease in serum testosterone and an increase in serum sex hormone-binding globulin in obese women with the polycystic ovary syndrome."5.06Suppression of serum insulin level by diazoxide does not alter serum testosterone or sex hormone-binding globulin levels in healthy, nonobese women. ( Blackard, WG; Clore, JN; Matt, DW; Nestler, JE; Singh, R, 1990)
"The suppression of hyperinsulinism with diazoxide (300 mg/d during 30 days) in a young woman with PCOS and hirsutism, hyperinsulinism and insulinoresistance was followed by a modification of plasma androgens."3.69[Polycystic ovary and diazoxide. In vivo study]. ( Bercovici, JP; Brettes, JP; Floch, HH; Monguillon, P; Nahoul, K, 1996)

"Diazoxide treatment resulted in suppressed insulin release during a 100-g oral glucose tolerance test (insulin area under the curve, 262 +/- 55 nmol/min."1.28A direct effect of hyperinsulinemia on serum sex hormone-binding globulin levels in obese women with the polycystic ovary syndrome.
