When to Test with Control Solution:
OneTouch Ultra® Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose and is used to check that the meter and the test strips are working properly.
Do a control solution test:
whenever you open a new vial of test strips.
if you suspect the meter and test strips are not working properly.
if you have had repeated unexpected blood glucose results.
if you drop or damage the meter.
Note:
Use only OneTouch Ultra® Control Solution with your OneTouch® Ultra® 2 Meter.
Control solution tests must be done at room temperature (68–77°F). Make sure your meter, test strips, and control solution are at room temperature before testing.
Write the discard date (3 months after first opening the vial) on the vial label when you first open it.
CAUTION:Do Not swallow control solution; it is not for human consumption. Do Not apply control solution to the skin or eyes as it may cause irritation.
