INTRODUCTION:

McKesson TRUE METRIX® PRO  

Professional Monitoring Blood Glucose Meter

McKesson TRUE METRIX® PRO is a simple, accurate way to 

test whole blood glucose (sugar) level, anytime, anywhere. Our 

goal is to provide quality healthcare products and dedicated 

customer service. For questions about McKesson TRUE 

METRIX® PRO products, call 1-800-777-4908. 
McKesson recognizes the importance of practicing safe 

and reliable testing using the McKesson TRUE METRIX® 

PRO Professional Monitoring Blood Glucose Meter. Each 

patient should have specific blood glucose target ranges 

that are determined by their Doctor or Diabetes Healthcare 

Professional. Having most blood glucose results within the 

patient’s target range shows how well a treatment plan is 

working to control glucose levels. Keeping results within the 

patient’s target range helps slow or stop complications from 

diabetes.
The McKesson TRUE METRIX® PRO Professional Monitoring 

Blood Glucose Test Strips are for use with the McKesson 

TRUE METRIX® PRO Professional Monitoring Blood Glucose 

Meter to quantitatively measure glucose (sugar) in fresh 

capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertip or 

forearm, or venous whole blood collected only in sodium 

heparin vacutainer tubes. The McKesson TRUE METRIX® 

PRO Professional Monitoring Blood Glucose Meter measures 

current glucose results. It also detects, analyzes and corrects for 

hematocrit and temperature, and calculates the glucose result.
