Everything you need to test is contained within the POGO
Automatic Test Cartridge. No separate lancing device is required.
Each cartridge combines 10 test strips and 10 lancets.
The POGO Automatic 10-Test Cartridge
Only use POGO Test Cartridges
with your POGO Automatic Meter.
Note: 30-day discard date is an example only. Check
label on cartridge top for accurate open expiration
date.
Each test cell is environmentally sealed and contains one test strip
and one sterile lancet.
• Test cartridges are single-patient use only.
• Do not share cartridges, even with family members.
• Each lancet is 30 gauge. Single-use only and auto-disabled
after use.
• Lancets are coated with Silicone and Heparin to help reduce
pain and aid in blood collection. This coating makes skin contact
each time you test.
WARNING: Each lancet is coated with a tiny amount (<0.24 IU)
of heparin which keeps the collected blood from clotting inside
the test cell until your results appear. Before using this device,
let your doctor know if you are allergic to heparin or have ever
been diagnosed with Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia, also
known as HIT. HIT is a very rare condition which causes blood
clots. Stop using the device and contact your doctor if you notice
unexplained swelling in one arm or leg, sudden severe chest pain
or shortness of breath, or stroke symptoms.
