Having been on a pump for a bit now and occasionally needing to use the eye-wateringly expensive GlucoJuice to get me out of a hypo quickly without spiking, I feel that someone is making one heck of a lot of dosh out of what is basically 15g of quick-release glucose. Annoyingly it works for me quicker than anything else but the fact that a hypo - at its cheapest - costs £1.19 sticks in the craw. Has anyone had any success replicating it? Have seen recipes for Isotoner drinks but they're not great either. I'd welcome any good pharmacists' tips out there or a share from someone who's cracked it on their own. (If I were you, I'd set up in opposition at half the price...you'd be rolling in it...).
