What to Do if Your Glucose Control Result Is
Outside the Acceptable Range
• Check the expiration date of the test strips. If the
strips have expired,dispose of them promptly.
• Control solution is only good for 3 months after
opening.If it has been open longer than 3
months,dispose of the solution.
• Make sure the cap was placed tightly on the vial
of test strips and control solutions.The test strips
and control solutions can be damaged when they
are not capped and stored properly.Do not store
in areas of extreme temperature or humidity such
as the bathroom,kitchen, laundry room,or car.
• The control solution should be applied to the test
strip within 3 minutes of removing it from the vial.
• Check that the code in the meter matches the
code on the test strip vial.
• Repeat the glucose control test with a new test
strip,taking care to follow the steps exactly.
If the result is still not within the acceptable range,
your blood glucose results may not be reliable.
