Caring for Your Test Strips

• Storage condition: 4°C to 40°C (39.2°F to 104°F) for glucose
test strip, below 85% relative humidity. Do NOT freeze.
• Store your test strips in their original vial only. Do not
transfer to another container.
• Store test strip packages in a cool and dry place. Keep away
from direct sunlight and heat.
• After removing a test strip from the vial, immediately close
the vial cap tightly.
• Touch the test strip with clean and dry hands.
• Use each test strip immediately after removing it from the
vial.
• Write the opening date on the strip vial label when you first
open it. Discard remaining test strips after 6 months.
• Do not use test strips beyond the expiry date. This may
cause inaccurate results.
• Do not bend, cut, or alter a test strip in any way.
• Keep the strip vial away from children since the cap and the
test strip may be a choking hazard. If swallowed, promptly
see a doctor for assistance.
For further information, please refer to the test strip package
insert.
