    Glucogel

    Glucogel is classified as a food supplement and may be used in the treatment of “hypos”. Otherwise known as hypoglycaemia, this is a condition where the sugar in the blood drops too low. It mainly affects people with diabetes, especially if they’re taking insulin. If a low blood sugar level isn’t raised, it can become extremely dangerous, extremely quickly. Each Glucogel tube contains 10g of sugary gel mainly in the form of glucose. They are extremely easy to carry and can be placed in a bag or pocket for immediate use when they are required.

    Glucogel 40

    A low blood sugar level is also known as something called hypoglycaemia. This is when the level of sugar in the blood drops too low and causes symptoms. People with diabetes will often experience this, especially if they are taking insulin. If it isn’t treated quickly, say with some Glucogel 40, a low blood sugar level can be extremely dangerous. Early signs you may need to take Glucogel 40 include:
    • Sweating
    • Feeling tired
    • Dizziness
    • Feeling hungry
    • Tingling lips
    • Feeling shaky or trembling
    • A fast or pounding heartbeat
    • Becoming easily irritated, tearful, anxious or moody
    • Turning pale

    Glucogel 40 Gel

    Glucogel 40 Gel is for diabetics and are supposed to be taken when someone is experiencing low blood sugar symptoms. Once they’ve been taken, it is recommended that levels are checked 10 to 15 minutes after ingesting, making sure levels are rising and are back to a safe enough range. Other gels and glucose tablets for diabetics usually relieve symptoms within a 10 minute period. Glucogel 40 Gel may be recommended if levels are dropping fast due to not needing to be chewed. Glucogel 40 Gel is not meant for emergency hypoglycaemia. Emergency treatment would need something like a glucagon emergency kit or Baqsimi nasal spray.

    Glucogel PIL

    Every purchase of Glucogel will or should include a Glucogel PIL (Patient information leaflet). Patient information leaflets contain everything you need to know about the medication, including what it is, the ingredients it contains, possible side effects and how to use it.

It is used by healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses and pharmacists. Unfortunately there currently isn’t a page for the Glucogel SPC.
