For G-Pen Mini Period: Participants are to check blood glucose (BG) with study meter if continuous glucose monitor (CGM) reads <70 mg/dl or they experience symptoms. Participants instructed to treat using mini-dose glucagon for certain phases/periods when BG is 40 to 69 mg/dl (considered a non-severe hypoglycemic event). G-Pen Mini™ (glucagon injection): 1st BG check, 1st treatment
15 min later, 2nd BG check, 2nd treatment
30 minutes later, 3rd BG check, 3rd treatment
|
For Glucose Tabs Period: Participants are to check blood glucose (BG) with study meter if continuous glucose meter reads <70 mg/dl or they experience symptoms. Participants instructed to treat using oral glucose tablets for certain phases/periods when BG is 40 to 69 mg/dl (considered a non-severe hypoglycemic event). Glucose Tabs: 1st BG check, 1st treatment:
15 min later, 2nd BG check, 2nd treatment
30 minutes later, 3rd BG check, 3rd treatment
