A member asked:
At what rate will sugar levels drop after glucose tablet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you don't have diabetes it won't even go up enough to be noticed. If you have diabetes, it can go up and stay up for a long time -- unless you're on medication, in which case it may go up only slightly and drop down again quickly -- for instance if you've taken a recent injection of Insulin which is still acting in your body.
