Glucose tablets are good to keep on hand when you are on the go because they have a long shelf life -- about three years -- but always check the expiration date on the package. You can keep them in your bag or somewhere with you since hypoglycemia can happen unexpectedly, especially if you are busy.
The American Diabetes Association recommends taking 15 to 20 g of glucose to treat hypoglycemia and retesting in 15 min. That translates to between 4 and 5 GlucoLift tablets. Some people find they need less than that, some people occasionally need more.
