Who they are:
GlucoRx is one of the UK’s leading suppliers of diabetes products to the NHS with their head office based in Woking. GlucoRx has staff based across the whole of the UK. They provide training and equipment to the NHS for the treatment and management of diabetes.
It is calculated that around 1 million people have Type 2 diabetes but have not yet been diagnosed. This is the reason why GlucoRx offers free blood glucose testing, so they can help people keep an eye on their levels and see if they could be at risk. 6 in 10 people have no symptoms when they’re diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, but they want to help people identify it as soon as possible.
A couple of their products:
GlucoRx Glucose Gel
Exceptionally fast-acting Carbohydrate gel that raises low blood sugar. This innovative 2:1 Maltodextrin:Fructose technology food supplement is a naturally flavoured, great tasting high potency hypertonic energy gel in different flavours – Black Cherry Yoghurt and Raspberry Ripple. It has a silky smooth melt-in-the-mouth texture and is easy to swallow, containing 5 key electrolytes and no artificial sweeteners or colours.
GlucoRx Torq Gel utilises a 2:1 blend of maltodextrin (special glucose-derivative) and fructose, founded on peer-reviewed published research. This dual-delivery carbohydrate formulation has been proven to supply energy faster than any combination of carbohydrates or single carbohydrate source formulations.

GlucoRx Allpresan® Diabetic Foot Foam Cream
GlucoRx Allpresan® is the only clinically formulated foam cream to prevent dry cracked skin and calluses on diabetic feet. It can be used on the entire foot, including between the toes, unlike conventional creams – which could cause moisture build-up and lead to infection. GlucoRx Allpresan® is quick to apply and non-greasy, so footwear can be put on immediately after application.
