Yes, depending on how much diabetic meds, calorie counting and the type of insulin. Speak with your endocrinologist or your primary care physician about it. And make sure you have a journal of when you’re taking your medicines, your calorie, calorie counting, and when you’re hyper and hypo glycemic in relation to those. It will all go to your doctor for review. Thank you and I wish you well.

OR if you are referring to your own situation, you may be taking too much anti diabetic medication or taking it at the wrong time of day.
