During the daytime, whenever my blood sugar goes low, I feel sleepy and when i wake up, I feel hungry. This sleepiness happen when I already had enough sleep, I do not have other illnesses like diabetic but I do have depression and am taking 75mg of Effexor Venlafaxine.

Is there any medication that could improve my alertness or reduce sleepiness?

Keep your blood sugar at a steadier level by having small snacks as needed.
