Does anyone currently use glucojuice for GTTs? Our paediatricians are keen to change to this from lucozade, which they are currently using. It contains 15g dextrose in 59mL and is not carbonated (and apparently tastes quite nice).
If so, is it available in bottles of a greater volume (ideally 75g in 295mL i.e. equivolent of 5 bottles)? For an adult dose of 75g, 5 bottles at £1.59 each would be a very expensive way of doing things!
Thanks,
Sarah
