Taking a test
• Do Not open the test strip vial until you are ready to
remove a test strip and perform a test. Use the test strip
immediately after removing it from the vial.
• Do Not return the used test strip to the vial after
performing a test.
• Do Not re-use a test strip that had blood or control
solution applied to it. Test strips are for single use only.
• With clean, dry hands, you may touch the test strip
anywhere on its surface. Do Not bend, cut or modify the
test strip in any way.
• When you first open a vial of test strips, record the
discard date on the label. Refer to the test strip insert or
vial label for instructions on determining the discard date.
m CAUTION
• The OneTouch® Verio™IQ Blood Glucose Monitoring
System should not be used for patients within 24 hours
of receiving a D-xylose absorption test as it may cause
inaccurately high results.
• Do Not use your test strips if your vial is damaged or
left open to air. This could lead to error messages or
inaccurate results. Contact the OneTouch® Customer
Care Line at 1 800 663-5521 immediately if the test
strip vial is damaged.
