Severe hypoglycaemia: It is defined as low blood glucose levels which require assistance from other people to treat. It is an emergency condition that requires immediate medical attention and occurs in diabetic people taking insulin and other anti-diabetic medicines. The symptoms include loss of consciousness, fits, confusion or intense nightmares while asleep. The risk of severe hypoglycaemia in diabetic patients increases if the regular meal is delayed or missed, insulin overdose, alcohol intake or exercise is done without proper reduction in medication.
