Neonatal hypoglycemia (NH) is a common abnormality in newborns, posing significant morbidity risks. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are vital to mitigate brain damage and enhance outcomes. Congenital hyperinsulinemia (CHI) is a leading cause of recurrent hypoglycemia in infants, often stemming from genetic mutations such as in the gene, manifesting as hyperinsulinism-hyperammonemia syndrome (HI/HA).

Rare defects in the promoter region of SLC16A1, the gene encoding monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT-1), result in exercise-induced hyperinsulinism. In this disorder, inappropriate insulin secretion is triggered by anaerobic exercise with consequent hypoglycaemia. We describe the case of a 41-year-old man presenting with a generalised tonic-clonic seizure and severe hypoglycaemia following strenuous exercise.

Introduction: Diazoxide is the first-line treatment for children with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HI). In these cases, diazoxide raises blood glucose levels by suppressing insulin release, preventing hypoglycemia, and potentially devastating end-organ sequelae. Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) is an exceedingly rare side effect of diazoxide.
