If a person who is not diabetic gets low blood sugar from taking a herbal medication, what would happen?

Discontinue: Having hypoglycemia can cause ill effects as much as high bs especially if there is underlying cardiac or thyroid problems. If your hypoglycemia persists off such supplements, best if you seek medical evaluation.

May need to stop it: Herbal supplements are not harmless by any means. Many have undesirable side effects and consequences. If you're on a supplement which causes low blood sugar, discuss with your doctor. You may need to stop taking it.
