Please be advised that Glucagon is in the process of being discontinued and is being replaced by Baqsimi, a new inhaled product used for treating severe low blood sugar in students with diabetes.

Unlike Glucagon, Baqsimi does not require yearly hands-on training. Staff supporting students prescribed Baqsimi can update their knowledge by watching a brief video and reviewing usage with families during the setup of the Diabetes Support Plan and Medication Administration Form for the school year.
