I am 18 year old male, diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 14. I want to ask can paracetamol/crocin (500 mg) decrease blood sugar levels (to 64) if taken once after dinner for pain?

Hello, thanks for the query. I have seen the details mentioned. In fact paracetamol has been seen to increase the blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes. It is also seen that it affects the results in cgms (continuous glucose monitoring system). Thanks.
