Questionable or Inconsistent Results
If your blood glucose or blood β-ketone result does not match how you feel, please:
•
Check the expiration date and discard date of the test strip.
•
Confirm the temperature in which you are testing is between 45.5 and 113°F.
•
Make sure the test strip has been stored at 36-86°F, 10-90% relative humidity.
•
Make sure the test strip was used immediately after removing it from the test
strip foil pouch.
•
Make sure that you followed the test procedure correctly.
•
Perform a control solution test (See

below for
instructions).
After checking all of the conditions listed above, repeat the test with a new test strip.

Testing with Control Solution
Why Perform Control Tests?
Performing a control test lets you know that your meter and test strips are working
properly to provide reliable test results. You should perform a control test:
•
Once a week
•
When you open a new box of test strips
•
When you want to check the meter and test strips
•
When your test strips were stored in extreme temperature or humidity
•
After cleaning your meter
•
If you dropped the meter
•
If you suspect your test result is not accurate. Or if your test result does not
match with how you feel
