How many packs
My 5 year old T1D daughter loved the sour apple. The variety pack gave us plenty of opportunities to try all the flavors.
— Kyle H., verified buyer

Three flavors, two tubes of each

  • Sour Apple: A burst of tart green apple with a mouthwatering punch. Just like your favorite sour candy.
  • Strawberry Kiwi: Natural strawberry juiciness with a subtle hint of kiwi. For the fruit lovers.
  • Golden Yuzu: Sweet and mild. Hints of lemon that go down smooth.
Is it chalky?

We put coconut oil in every tablet so it chews smooth instead of crumbling.

How many for a low?

Four tablets is 16g of dextrose. Every tablet is exactly 4g, so you count instead of guess.

Are they good for kids?

Kids get the candy taste without the junk: no artificial dyes, flavors or sweeteners, just colors from fruit and vegetable powders. Every tablet is exactly 4g, so doses are easy to count. One dad told us his 5-year-old's favorite is sour apple.

Made by a T1D

I was diagnosed with Type 1 at 11 and grew up on chalky glucose tabs that never changed. In 2025, Ronnie and I (best friends since elementary school) made the tablet I always wanted in my pocket.

I did not believe this was a Mom'nPop garage band kind of think, knew it was a big pharm company. The product is a little fuzzy but other than than the exact same thing as the usual glucose tablets I use. The flavor is fine and the price was comparable to any other over the counter tablets but I am not impressed enough to buy again.

Great flavors, though the promise of "no chalk" taste isn't quite there, I'd love to see them come out with the same flavors, but consistency of the Tums chewy bites. Now that would be amazing!

Disappointed. Expensive and my son doesn’t like them. He says the Yukon and sour apple are gross and won’t even try the other ones. I pay $5 for a huge bottle at Costco that he says taste better.

These glucose tabs are the best I’ve had in 27 years. I like the packaging too. No more powdery glucose tabs all over the bottom of my purse!

Im very dissapointed in these, was under the impression they were not chalky and THEY DEFINITELY ARE!!! VERY DISSATISFIED with the taste and money spent for these.

Absolutely love these. The taste is pretty good. They help keep my sugars from falling and help rise my sugars when they are low.

they were ok. definitely still chalky. if they hadn't been marketed as "chalk free" I wouldn't have had such an easy time judging.

These remind me of the chalky glucose tablets I used to eat in the 90s. The watermelon is horrible, but the Yuzu is edible. I haven’t tried the apple yet. I like the Dextro Energy tablets on Amazon a lot better.

They might be not that chalkie like other Glucose Tablets but they are very hard to chew. The flavors are not my cup of tea either 🤷‍♀️ I will stay with the Walgreens Glucose Tablets 🤷‍♀️

These are great! Much easier to chew and swallow than other tabs - especially when treating a midnight low and you’re half asleep. They work fast, taste great, and have no chalk as you chew.

Used sprite for the past 28 years. These work so much better! Quicker and no spikes after. Was skeptical but highly recommend. Flavors are good also which is a plus.

Still too chalky for my T1D, but the flavors are good

Excellent

I was expecting something less chalky and more maybe like gummier consistency. While the flavors are great and they will be of great use, but I feel they are the same as drug store glucose tabs.

My 5 year old T1D daughter loved the sour apple. The variety pack gave us plenty of opportunities to try all the flavors. We're looking forward to new flavors from Zap in the future. Great job reinventing the dextrose tablet!

Different flavors and not chalky. Definitely better than the ones you can purchase in stores. Recommend trying these if you haven't yet.

Tablets are to hard pressed. My blood sugar drops rapidly and I need a glucose tab that dissolves quickly.
The taste of ur tabs was only mediocre.
Sorry won't be purchasing again.

Love these! They are definitely still tablets so have a bit of a chalky flavor, but ultimately they are better than whts on the market and not as good as juice or candy so I can actually stick to the 15g recommendation :D

Same chalky texture just different flavors. Not impressed!
