AST Precautions
Helpful Tip
Results from alternative site and fingertip samples may
appear differently as there is a time lag for the glucose levels
to reach the same value. Use a fingertip for drawing if you
suffer from hypoglycemia or have experienced hypoglycemic
shock or symptoms.
• If the sample drop of blood runs or spreads due to contact
with hair or with a line in you palm, do not use that
sample. Try puncturing again in a smoother area.
• Do not ignore the symptoms of hyperglycemia or
hypoglycemia.
• When the results of the test do not reflect one’s opinion, retest
using the fingertip test. If the test results do not reflect one’s
opinion, please consult a doctor.
• Do not rely on the AST results for changing one’s treatment
method.
• The amount glucose in alternative sites differs from person to
person.
• Before using AST, please consult your regular physician.
