It is more likely if you are late eating your food or reduce the amount that you eat. Repeat every 15 minutes until the blood sugar is greater than 80.
Foods containing starch and protein are necessary to help prevent another reaction.
The food eaten for a reaction need not be subtracted from a meal plan. Obtain a blood sugar when symptoms occur if you are able. If symptoms are severe, treat the reaction first and then obtain a blood sugar. Do not drive nor operate equipment if you feel your blood sugar is low. Glucagon is a hormone that causes the blood sugar to rise.
