Control Test

FORA control solutions contains a known amount of glucose that
reacts with test strips. By comparing your control solution test
results with the expected range printed on the test strip vial label,
you can ensure that the monitor and the test strips are working
together as a system and that you are performing the test correctly.
It is very important that you do this simple check routinely to make
sure your results are accurate.

for each level of control solution at least once a week.

working properly.
