Hypoglycemic attacksare typically treated by consuming a source of glucose, such as fruit juice or glucose tablets. Overall, it is important for people with diabetes to monitor their blood sugar levels regularly and to take steps to prevent hypoglycemic attacks, such as following a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and taking medications as directed.
