A member asked:

How do hormones, glucagon and insulin work together to control blood glucose levels?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

In tandem: They work in tandem, with Insulin lowering blood sugar when needed and glucagon raising it when needed. However, in type 2 diabetes glucagon is stimulated inappropriately, raising glucose even further when it's already elevated.
