Control Solution Testing
Our Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose that reacts with
test strips and is used to ensure your meter and test strips are working
together correctly.
Test strips, control solutions, or sterile lancets may not be included in
the kit (please check the contents on your product box). They can be
purchased separately. Please make sure you have those items needed for
a blood glucose test beforehand.
Do a control solution test when:
• you first receive the meter,
• at least once a week to routinely check the meter and test strips,
• you begin using a new vial of test strips,
• you suspect the meter or test strips are not working properly,
• your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you feel,
or if you think the results are not accurate,
• practicing the testing process, or
• you have dropped or think you may have damaged the meter.
Performing a Control Solution Test
1. Insert the test strip to turn on the
meter
