Provided are immediate or prolonged administration of certain salts of K.sub.ATP channel openers such as diazoxide to a subject to achieve novel pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic, therapeutic, physiological, metabolic and compositional outcomes in the treatment of diseases or conditions involving K.sub.ATP channels. Also provided are pharmaceutical formulations, methods of administration and dosing of the salts that achieve these outcomes and reduce the incidence of adverse effects in treated individuals. Further provided are method of co-administering the salts with other drugs to treat diseases of humans and animals.

A composition for treating a disease or condition responsive to human growth hormone receptor antagonists, comprising a modified human growth hormone receptor antagonist; and an anti-cancer composition. A method for treating cancer using human growth hormone antagonists, comprising pre-screening a patient by analyzing a tumor biopsy to confirm the presence of cancer and the presence of certain predetermined factors indicative of responsiveness to human growth hormone antagonists; and treating the patient with an effective amount of a composition that includes a modified human growth hormone receptor antagonist and an anti-cancer composition.

The invention relates to methods for treating stress sensitive condition. For instance a subject having or at risk of having a stress-sensitive condition may be treated with a growth hormone (GH) antagonist in an effective amount to treat the stress sensitive condition. The GH antagonist may be, for instance, a growth hormone receptor (GHR) antagonist.
