printed on the test strip box and on each test strip foil
packet. If only the month and year
are printed on the test strip, then
the expiry date is the last day of
that month.

For more detailed information
about your test strip, please read
its instructions for use before
monitoring.
•
Use the test strip
immediately
when you take it out of its
foil packet.
•
Do not
use a wet, bent, scratched, or damaged test strip.
•
Do not
use the test strip if its foil packet has a puncture or
tear in it.
•
Before you monitor, allow your meter and test strip to
reach the recommended operating range of the test
strip. The test strip operating range is in the “What else do
I need to know?” section of your blood glucose test strip
instructions for use.
•
Read the lancing device instructions for use.
