Key result
Exercise in patients with diabetes using insulin or secretagogues increases hypoglycemia risk, which can be managed by monitoring blood glucose, adjusting insulin, and consuming carbohydrates.

How can exercise-related hypoglycemia be managed in patients with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes mellitus?
Patients with diabetes on insulin or secretagogues face increased hypoglycemia risk during exercise, which can be mitigated by glucose monitoring, insulin adjustment, and carbohydrate supplementation.
Younk et al. (2010) conducted a review in Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Exercise was evaluated. Exercise in patients with diabetes using insulin or secretagogues increases hypoglycemia risk, which can be managed by monitoring blood glucose, adjusting insulin, and consuming carbohydrates.
