Anyone use gluc tables for pwo drink after an insulin shot?

[brooklynheight]

[simster1]

Yeah but there are only 4g of carbs per tab.

If you don't mind my hickjacking your thread, what are glucose tabs? where can you get them?

Thanks

[abstrack]

drug store and they are dextrose tablets. Just flavored sugar tabs

[simster1]

If your first starting out on slin take dextrose.Use the Glucose tabs for emergency. Just seems like a lot of tabs for primary sugur. If you use 10iu of slin you need 25 tabs being they are only 4g of carbs each.

Could you get them at your regular superarket like Shaws/star market?

Thanks

For emergency use only. Stick with dextrose/maltodextrin powder for your PWO.

Keep them with you at all times after you inject for added saftey reasons like Gear and the others said. They are cheap $<2
