I have had a few episodes with hypoglocemiaand keep NutriCal on hand all the time. Dr. Amy has given me the following information about using NutriCal that I would like to add. NutriCal has worked miracles for us in emergency situations. It will bring sugar levels backup very quickly. The biggest problem is that NutriCal is won't hold the sugar levels up for very long. Dr. Amy has told me that I should follow up with a slower burning carb - cheerios, bread, and a bit of protein, or a couple of bites of a high quality canned dog food. Syringe if necessary. BUT ..... like you said.....

DISCLAIMER: This is a quick fix to use IN ROUTE to the vet - NOT A SUBSTITUTION FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT!

What great information -- this should be in a STICKY somewhere!!
