Hello
Severe persistent hypoglycemia causing seizures has to be evaluated. If the cause was due to oral hypoglycemic drug than the dosage of the drugs needs to be adjust by the advise from your doctor.
In my opinion do not take sustained and extended release formulation of OHA's.
Do not miss any meal while on OHA'S. Frequent monitor blood sugar.and adjust the dose according.
