A carbos diet for gestational diabetes? - TK


Posted: Jan 14, 2011

This patient has gestational diabetes and the doc has put her on s/l "A Carbos" 25 mg t.i.d.  The whole sentence is as follows:

I have gone ahead and started her on a carbos 25 mg three times a day to address her postprandial hyperglycemia.  

Any help would be appreciated!!  Thanks!
