What common prescription drugs have a tendency to raise blood sugar levels? |
I am diabetic,controled with diet and exercise and worry every time my blood sugar is higher than normal. I also take lots of prescription and non prescription medicines and recently my fasting blood sugar went up about 25 points and has remained there for over a week. I am also diabetic, tightly controlled, and have been for 16 years. I find that the only meds that raise my bloodsugar are steroids (and they DRASTICALLY raise it), amphetamines (like in pseudophed and other decongestants), and antibiotics. I find that amphetamines and antibiotics only raise it a little, but that steroids push it 200 and 300 points upwards and I have to bolus often and raise my basal rate by a full unit each hour. Yeah, I'm a pump user and I love it! Talk to your docter about it, he can give you the best advice. Also, are you participating in a experimental drug test, if so you may have a placebo and thats why your blood sugar is higher. Any type of steriod has a tendency to do that. Certain diuretics and birth control pills do as well. |
