Then I tried it again the next day to see how it would work after the glucagon had been mixed for a day and left out. The expired glucagon worked both first and second day, but what was interesting to me is the big difference I saw in how it affected my BG. Both times I used the same dose, a mini-dose of 25 units instead of the whole 100 units of solution. First day: 51 to 109, 58 points in 32 minute…
