If you need to lower your blood glucose quickly, consider the following steps:

  • Exercise: Engage in moderate physical activity like walking or light aerobics. Exercise helps your muscles use glucose for energy, which can lower blood sugar levels.
  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help your kidneys flush out excess glucose through urine.
  • Medication: If you are on insulin or other glucose-lowering medications, take them as prescribed. Rapid-acting insulin can help lower blood sugar quickly.
  • Avoid Sugary Foods: Refrain from consuming high-carb or sugary foods that can spike your blood sugar further.

Always monitor your blood sugar levels and consult your healthcare provider if you experience frequent high blood sugar episodes or if levels remain high despite these measures.
