Abstract
Three patients experienced severe hypoglycemic encephalopathy during oral therapy of adult-onset diabetes mellitus. Disabling residual neurological deficits were observed in two of these patients. The insidious time course of drug-induced hypoglycemia appeared to prevent patient recognition of sustained hypoglycemia. These cases indicate the need for further caution in the administration of oral hypoglycemic agents.
