Lilly Glucagon Emergency Kit

Submitted by NamVet - 21894 — October 9, 2008 at 2:14 pm

This is a Life Saver. I have one in about every place I can keep them. When I walk I always have one with me. I had a friend walking one day and fell and was headed into a coma. A Nurse who lived a few houses down had a Kit and saved him.

When I'm unconscious from low BG and my wife can't rouse me, she has injected me me with glucagon and in about 15 minutes I came around. First time used was when I missed a meal on international air travel. Arrived in a dazed condition, and was out by the time she drove me home. She thought the response would be instant—it isn't


Pros

Will bring you around by getting glucose out of your liver, but YOU BETTER EAT SOMETHING IMMEDIATELY TO RESTORE THE CARBS IN YOUR BODY.


Cons

Pricy and expires.

Having to teach everybody I know what to do and how to use it. But thats not a bad thing

That is true. I think they should have them in places of business in case some Diabetic has an emergency??
