On the sides of boxes for cough medicines, allergy medicines, etc... it often says "contact a doctor before using if you are: diabetic, pregnant, high blood pressure, etc... I was wondering: why? I think it's because sugar (glucoses) are high in the "non-medical ingeredients" list, but I'm not sure. Also, are there any types if meds you use that do not have a negative effect on your diabetes?See More
Androo replied to Megzway's discussion 'Feelling Hypoglycemic but numbers aren't low.'"I just meant that doctors/endos suggest taking insulin at least 20 minutes before eating.
