I think Alka-Seltzer lowers my blood sugar!

So I took some Alka-Seltzer Cold and Cough, the kind that you drop in water and drink, anyway, I took that, and took a nap. Woke up 2 hours later and my blood sugar was 30.

Ok, so I thought maybe having that hypo was from my swim practice earlier in the day. So the day goes on, and before Im about to go to bed, around 12am, I took another dose of the Alka-Seltzer. Woke up around 2 and a half hours later and my blood sugar was 33!

So I was thinking, maybe the Alka-Seltzer is lowering my BS. I had 2 cookies around 1130pm and did not give myself any insulin, because I dident think it was neccesary for eating 2 cookies. Does anyone have an answer for what was going on?
