Attaching tags to your blood glucose results:
- Your OneTouch Verio IQ® Meter allows you to attach a Before meal or After meal tag to your current blood glucose result.
- A Before meal blood glucose test is taken just before the start of your meal.
- An After meal blood glucose test is typically taken one to two hours after the start of your meal.
- You can also change or add a tag to your most recent result (Last Result) when reviewing it in the meter memory.
- We suggest you talk to your health care professional to see how meal tags may help you manage your diabetes.
- Note:
- A Before meal tag is used to determine if a blood glucose result should trigger a high pattern message.
- Use care when adding tags to your blood glucose results. Incorrect tagging can cause the information displayed in averages and high pattern messages to be inaccurate and/or misinterpreted.
