Before using this product to test your blood glucose, carefully read this User Guide and the inserts that come with the OneTouch® Ultra® Test Strips and OneTouch® Ultra® Control Solution.

The OneTouch® Ultra® 2 Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood. The OneTouch® Ultra® 2 System is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home and by health care professionals in a clinical setting as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. It should not be used for the diagnosis of diabetes or for testing newborns.
Test Principle:
Glucose in the blood sample mixes with special chemicals in the test strip and a small electric current is produced. The strength of this current changes with the amount of glucose in the blood sample. Your meter measures the current, calculates your blood glucose level, displays the result, and stores it in its memory.
