There are a number of medications - insulin as well as oral medications that can have low blood sugars as a side-effect. Also, factors in your daily life such as level of exercise and changes in diet may increase your risk for low blood sugars.

I suggest talking with your diabetes doctor further to help you determine what factor or factors could be responsible for low blood sugar.
