GLUCAGEN HYPOKIT 1MG
GlucaGen® is a prescription medicine used to treat very low blood sugar (severe hypoglycemia) that can happen in people who have diabetes and use insulin.
GlucaGen® contains an injection of glucagon, and works by triggering the liver to release stored sugar, raising blood sugar levels. It is injected under the skin, similar to how insulin is injected. Do not use GlucaGen® if you are allergic to either glucagon or lactose, have a tumor of the adrenal gland called a pheochromocytoma, or have a tumor of the pancreas called insulinoma.
Your health care provider might prescribe GlucaGen® HypoKit® for the following reasons:
Works fast - GlucaGen® HypoKit® begins to raise blood sugar levels within about 10 minutes after an injection
Goes with you - No refrigeration needed, so you can keep GlucaGen® HypoKit® handy
Protective, bright orange case - Designed to be easier to find
Picture instructions - The instructions on the protective case show family and friends how to give an injection if you suffer a severe hypoglycemic episode
