If patients use more Humalog Mix25/Humalog Mix50 than they need or are unsure how much they have injected, a low blood sugar may occur. Patients should check their blood sugar.
Patients whose blood sugar is low (mild hypoglycaemia) should eat glucose tablets, sugar or drink a sugary drink. Then they should eat fruit, biscuits, or a sandwich, as advised by their doctor, and have some rest. This will often get patients over mild hypoglycaemia or a minor insulin overdose. Patients who get worse and whose breathing is shallow and whose skin gets pale should seek medical advice at once. A glucagon injection can treat quite severe hypoglycaemia. Patients should eat glucose or sugar after the glucagon injection. Patients who do not respond to glucagon will have to go to hospital.
