Control solution testing
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:
• to practice the test process instead of using blood,
• once a week,
• whenever you open a new vial of test strips,
• if you suspect the meter or test strips are not working properly,
• if you have had repeated unexpected blood glucose results (as described on page 25), or
• if you drop or damage the meter.
NOTE:
• Use only OneTouch
® Ultra ® Control Solution with your OneTouch ® UltraMini ™ 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 .
