Subject: Isoproterenol vs 3rd degree AV block vs insulinoma

Hello,

I have another question to add to my first one. The exotic
vet here is planning on trying Isoproterenol next Tuesday to
see if it will work for Taz's 3rd degree AV block. However, I
was reading in my Pharmacology book today that Isoproterenol
also increases insulin levels, which concerns me since Taz
already has somewhat severe insulinoma. Does anyone have any
experience with that?

Thanks for any help you can give me,
