Important Control Solution Information
Use only TaiDoc control solution with your meter.
Do not use the control solution beyond the expiry date or 3
months after first opening. Write the opening date on the control
solution vial and discard the remaining solution after 3 months.
It is recommended that the control solution test be done at room
temperature 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F). Make sure your control
solution, meter, and test strips are at this specified temperature
range before testing.
Shake the vial before use, discard the first drop of control solution,
and wipe off the dispenser tip to ensure a pure sample and an ac-
curate result.
Store the control solution tightly closed at temperatures between
2°C and 30°C (35.6°F and 86°F). Do NOT freeze.
After removing a test strip from the vial, immediately close the vial
cap tightly.
Touch the test strip with clean and dry hands.
Use each test strip immediately after removing it from the vial.
Write the date on the vial label when you first opened it. Discard
remaining test strips after 6 months.
Do not use test strips beyond their expiry date. This may cause
inaccurate results.
Do not bend, cut, or alter a test strip in any way.
Keep the strip vial away from children since the cap and the test
strip may be a choking hazard. If swallowed, promptly see a doctor
for help.
