Answered by Dr. Emily Carter, MD

High blood glucose, or hyperglycemia, can be managed through several approaches:

  • Medication: Take prescribed insulin or oral diabetes medications as directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Diet: Focus on a balanced diet with controlled carbohydrate intake. Avoid sugary foods and drinks.
  • Exercise: Regular physical activity helps lower blood glucose levels. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days.
  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help flush out excess glucose through urine.
  • Monitoring: Regularly check your blood glucose levels to track your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

If high blood glucose levels persist or you experience symptoms like extreme thirst, frequent urination, or fatigue, consult your healthcare provider immediately.
