Betnisol causes increase in blood sugars.
If she s not a diabetic or gestational diabetic or impaired blood sugars during pregnancy patient then nothing to be done.
However if she has any of the above ideally she should b given insulin to lower blood sugars and this also ll settle automatically in 48hrs
