AST Precautions
• D o not ignore the symptoms of hyperglycemia or
hypoglycemia.
• W hen the results of the test do not reflect your opinion,
retest using the fingertip test. If the fingertip result still does
not reflect the way you feel, please consult your healthcare
professional.
• D o not rely on the AST results for changing your treatment
method.
• T he amount of glucose in alternative sites differs from
person to person.
• B efore using AST, please consult your healthcare
professional.
Note: Results from alternative site and fingertip samples
may differ from each other as there is a time lag for the
glucose levels to reach the same value. Use a fingertip for
testing if you suffer from hypoglycemia or have experienced
hypoglycemic shock or symptoms.
Note: If the sample drop of blood runs or spreads due to
contact with hair or with a line in your palm, do not use that
sample. Try puncturing again in a smoother area.
