Glycomet tablets is responsible for low sugar levels in your mother. You really need to consider stopping those tablets and get started on alternate treatment which is less likely to cause low sugars.
Please remember low sugar is as dangerous and perhaps more dangerous to patients heath than high sugar level. Hence it is important you have your mother treatment altered as a matter of urgency.
