Quick answer: Combining Glyco Reset with insulin, sulfonylureas or other diabetes medicine could push blood sugar too low. Only use it with your doctor's approval and closer glucose monitoring.
Why this matters
Berberine, chromium, cinnamon, Gymnema, bitter melon and banaba are all studied for lowering blood sugar. On their own the effect is modest. Added to insulin or sulfonylureas such as glipizide or glyburide, the combined effect can cause hypoglycemia.
Warning signs of low blood sugar
- Shakiness, sweating or chills
- Fast heartbeat
- Sudden hunger, irritability or confusion
- Blurred vision or dizziness
The NIDDK recommends the 15-15 rule: 15 grams of fast carbohydrate, recheck after 15 minutes. NIDDK on hypoglycemia.
Other interactions
Berberine affects liver enzymes that process many drugs, including some statins, blood thinners and immunosuppressants.
What to ask your doctor
- Is it safe to add these ingredients to my current medicines?
- How often should I check my glucose?
- What reading should make me stop?
