Important Safety Information
NOTE
• Perform a control test when you open a new test strip box or if you think that a test result is
incorrect. Performing a control test lets you know that the meter and test strips are working
properly.
• Refer to the test strip and control solution package inserts for additional health‑related
information.
• Blood glucose and BG are interchangeable and mean the same thing.
Special Information for Caregivers
• Consult your healthcare professional to determine if it is appropriate for your child to be taught how to
use the meter system or any other medical products.
• Some people with diabetes do not experience symptoms of low blood glucose (hypoglycemia). Others,
such as children or people who are unconscious or have certain disabilities, may not be able to
communicate their symptoms to caregivers. For these reasons, do not change any therapy without first
talking to a healthcare professional.
