Hi there lybrate-user, kindly provide at least 3 values of sugar levels through out the day. As it is important to maintain normal sugar levels it is also important to avoid low levels. You could consult us for further treatment.

If the sugar level is low, you need to give 15gms sugar every 15 minutes till sugar is above 70. Monitor blood sugar before and after meals and discuss with your physician to titrate the dose if required,
