Glucogel Tubes

About Glucogel Tubes

Glucogel Tubes are fast‑acting glucose gel tubes designed to rapidly raise dangerously low blood sugar levels during episodes of hypoglycaemia. Each pack contains three single‑use tubes, each delivering 10g of fast acting glucose in the form of dextrose, offering a portable and convenient option for people with diabetes or anyone needing a quick blood sugar boost. Glucogel is gluten‑free, dairy‑free, wheat‑free, lactose‑free and fat‑free, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary needs.

What Are Glucogel Tubes Used For?

Glucogel Tubes are used to provide a rapid supply of glucose during low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) episodes, helping to quickly raise blood glucose levels and reduce symptoms of a hypo such as dizziness, shaking, hunger, irritability, or weakness.

Glucogel Tubes are suitable for people with diabetes who are at risk of hypoglycaemia and require an immediate source of fast‑acting glucose. Always consult a healthcare professional before use if unsure.

How To Use Glucogel Tubes
