 `8)I'm new to all of this `8)  I used some Chloraseptic throat spray during the night about 10 days ago. After using the spray, I went back to bed. Maybe half hour to forty-five minutes later, my sugar dropped like a rock. Is this a typical thing to happen when using such a product?

I don't think there is anything in the Chloraseptic throat spray that would cause a drop in your blood sugar but it would take a bit of testing to tell for sure.  When you say your blood sugar "dropped like a rock" it really doesn't mean much without actually knowing the actual numbers.  What was your reading before and after you took the medication ?  Are you taking any medication to lower your blood sugar ?  What did you eat for dinner ?  All of these affect your blood sugar levels.

I agree with Wally's response to your question. Without more information, it is hard to pinpoint the cause.
