Frequently Asked Questions
How do diabetic test strips work?
An enzyme called glucose oxidase transforms the blood glucose on the strip into an electrical current. The meter then reads the current as a glucose concentration, which appears as a number on the meter screen. These strips can be plus or minus 20 percent of your actual glucose number.
What are some tips for using glucose test strips?
Before handling diabetic test strips, wash your hands with soap and warm water or cleanse them with an alcohol swab or gel-based alcohol product. Check the expiration date before use. Use new diabetes lancets in your lancet device each time you test, and change fingers often.
When should I check my glucose levels?
Even if you are using the least expensive blood glucose test strips, try to eliminate waste by knowing when to test. The correct testing frequency varies from person to person. Consult your diabetes health care professional for guidance.
What are common mistakes to avoid?
Strips should be inserted fully into the meter before testing begins. A blood sample that is too small may cause errors. Diabetic test strips should not be removed from their original container until use. Strips that have contacted foreign materials should be discarded, and test strips should not be reused.
How can I determine which test strips are compatible with my glucose meter?
Using the wrong blood sugar test strips may produce inaccurate results. Check the product listings for both the strips and your glucose meter to confirm compatibility. When in doubt, contact a health care professional.
Is there a difference between test strips for different types of diabetes?
In general, test strips can be used for type 1, type 2, or gestational diabetes. However, your diabetes health care professional may recommend specific strips or testing routines for your needs.
Do diabetic test strips expire, and how should I store them?
Yes, diabetes test strips expire. Store them in the original vial and make sure it is tightly sealed. Keep glucose test strips in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and at a temperature between 39 and 86°F. Do not store them in a refrigerator or freezer.
Can I use test strips from one brand with a meter from another brand?
No. Blood glucose test strips are calibrated specifically for their respective meters.
Are test strips sold over the counter?
Test strips are sold over the counter when you are paying for them yourself. Brands known for offering low-cost diabetic test strips include TRUE METRIX, Embrace Talk, Nova Max, and Advocate Redi-Code.
