Hi..Thanks for using Healthcaremagic
Amoxi-clav doesn't cause low blood sugar values.Its a safe antibiotic in diabetic patient.Most probably infection must have caused raised sugar values.Antibiotics will control infection and there by sugar values also..If the sugar values are really low you can consult your doctor and the strength of the medicines can be reduced...thank you..
