Peanut butter can work, but it is important to raise the glucose level just enough without spiking levels, and to do so quickly. Glucose lozenges or glucose paste are typically the best solution. Lacking these, you can use soft candies: caramels (1-2), candy corn (3-4), or some other soft candy. Juice is very good solution, no more than 8 ounces, retest within 10-15 minutes and another sip if levels do not rise. Sugared soft drinks can work, but you should try to limit this to 6-8 ounces.
Different people respond to different solutions. Find what works for the person best, and keep this on hand.
