 Testing with Control Solution
What is a control solution test?
The control solution contains a known amount of glucose that reacts with test
strips. Compare your control solution test results with the expected range
printed on the test strip vial label. This enables you to check if the monitor and
the test strips are working together properly, and that you are performing the
test correctly.
Therefore, before testing your blood glucose for the first time, practice the
procedure using control solution. When you can do three tests in a row that are
within the expected range, you are ready to test your blood sugar.
Please note that the control solution range printed on the test strip vial is for
TaiDoc Control Solution only. It is used to test the monitor and test strip
performance. It is not a recommended range for your blood glucose level.
When should I do a control solution test?
 When you begin using a new vial of test strips.
 If you drop the monitor.
 When your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you feel, or
when you think your results are not accurate.
