Description

Contributor: Dylan Luyten, MD Educational Pearls: D10 may be a better alternative to D50 in correcting hypoglycemia Risks of D50:  Can cause extravasation injury Risk of rebound hypoglycemia D10 does not have the same risks and has no significant difference in reversal time of hypoglycemia compared to D50 References Kiefer MV, Gene Hern H, Alter HJ, Barger JB.
