In summary, Very small amounts of alcohol such as a glass of wine may not have an immediate effect on blood sugars. On the other hand, if you are a diabetic patient taking insulin in addition to metformin risk is higher. Moderate to heavy alcohol consumption can increase the risk of low blood sugars. Low blood sugars can happen even after 24 hours after alcohol intake.

If you are taking metformin and sulfonylurea such as glipizide, glimepiride, glyburide, the risk of low blood sugars with alcohol dramatically increases. Another reason to limit alcohol is that taking metformin and alcohol together can lead to lactic acidosis.

  4. Sylvanus Iyamu

    Hi DR, what is the quantity of 2 drinks. What is 2 drinks?

    Question: If you're dropping blood sugar levels whilst drinking – are you saying that fast-acting glucoese won't help the on-coming hypo? Or are you talking about the liver's natural glcuose-producing qualities?

  6. stupid fools🤪🤣

    If you know an alcoholic, please know they are drinking because they need help. They are suffering emotionally. They believe they can ignore they way they are feeling by drinking. The drink satisfies them at the moment but the root of the problem requires professional guidance. Bottom line, urge the alcoholic to seek help. No matter how angry they get, tell the closest people around them what is going on. Alcoholics keep secrets because they are ashamed of their dependency. But please know you will be saving a life.

    My husband was a diabetic alcoholic. He died at age 35.

    Peripheral neuropathy is common with diabetes,….once you get a little older (50’s) It’s no joke folks. Loss of feeling in your feet, loss of balance, loss of leg strength . Jogging, hiking, biking, skiing…hell, just standing for any length of time…forget it. Walk like your 80 in your 60’s There’s no cure, it only gets worse. I don’t wish it on anyone. Watch your diet, stop the alcohol. Yes, it’s tough to do, but you can do it.

    It is pretty simple. The fact is – alcohol can either raise or lower blood sugar. Some alcoholic drinks, such as vodka, whiskey, vodka, gin, and rum, are high in carbohydrates and have many calories, which will significantly raise blood sugars. If you want to enjoy a glass, you can, but it is better to choose dry wine or beer, wine is very low in carbohydrates. Red wine even holds some benefits – some studies show that a glass of red wine can reduce the risk of heart diseases for people with well-controlled type 2 diabetes and better glycemic control. ⁠
    We also have great video about how diabetic people might be affected by alcohol, check out if interested!

    Straight Whiskey is good for diabetics.
