You should eat fast-acting carbohydrates as soon as Baqsimi raises your blood sugar to a normal level. The American Diabetes Association recommends eating at least 15 g of carbohydrates within 15 minutes of experiencing hypoglycemia. (This is sometimes called the 15-15 rule.)
Examples of 15 g of fast-acting carbohydrates include:
4 ounces of fruit juice
4 ounces of regular (not diet) soda
glucose gel, liquid, powder, or tablets
hard candy (the candy’s label can tell you how many pieces equal 15 g)
