Control Solution Testing

About Prodigy
®
Prodigy control solution is a red liquid that contains glucose
®
that will react with test strips and produce a test result.
Prodigy systems use a high or low control solution.
®
v First, check your contents to see if you have a high or low
control solution kit.
v Then, after completing a control solution test, compare test
results with the correct range (high or low) located on the back
of the test strip vial.
Why Perform A Control Solution Test?
• To ensure that your meter and test strips are working properly
together.
• To allow you to practice testing without using your own blood.
It is recommended to do a control solution test:
• Once a week (to make sure that you continue to get
accurate results).
• When you begin using a new vial of test strips.
• When test strips are exposed to extreme
environmental conditions.
• If you drop the meter.
• If you change the battery.
