Control Solution Testing - Freestyle Libre User Manual

Control Solution Testing

You should do a control solution test when you are not sure of your test
strip results and want to check that your Reader's built-in meter and test
strips are working properly .
IMPORTANT:
•
Control solution results should fall within the control solution range
printed on the test strip instructions for use .
•
Do NOT use control solution past the expiration date . Discard
control solution 3 months after opening or on the expiration date
printed on the bottle, whichever comes first . (Example: open April
15, discard July 15; write the discard date on the side of the bottle .) .
•
The control solution range is a target range for control solution
only, not for your blood glucose results .
•
The control solution test does not reflect your blood glucose level .
•
Use only MediSense (low, medium or high) Glucose and Ketone
Control Solution with the Reader's built-in meter .
•
Check that the LOT number printed on the test strip foil packet and
instructions for use match .
•
Replace the cap securely on the bottle immediately after use .
•
Do NOT add water or other liquid to the control solution .
•
Contact Customer Service (1-855-632-8658) for information on how
to obtain control solution .
