Instructions for use:

• Bottle: Take approximately 1/3 of the bottle to manage a hypoglycaemic attack. Twist the cap off the bottle, squeeze the required amount (1/3) into the mouth, and gently massage it into the cheek (1/3 bottle is marked on the label). Glucogel remaining in the bottle can be kept until the best before end date printed on the bottle.

Dose:

• NICE guidelines recommend taking between 10 and 20g of carbohydrate (glucose) for treatment of a hypoglycaemic attack.
• 1 tube = 10g glucose
• 1/3 bottle = approximately 10g glucose

Warnings:

• For oral use only (not to be given to unconscious individuals as it may present a choking hazard).
• Do not use after the best before end date.
• Do not exceed the recommended dosage.
• Store at room temperature (refrigeration does not change the composition but makes it thicker and harder to administer).
• Not recommended for children under 5 years of age (choking hazard).

Remember to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice related to managing hypoglycaemia.
