circulation, severe dehydration as a result of diabetic ketoacidosis or
severe hyperglycemia, hyperosmolar non-ketotic coma or shock.

Acetaminophen in your blood (> 20 mg/dL) might affect the reliability
of your blood glucose results. If you are taking Tylenol, or other
acetaminophen containing drugs, your glucose results may not be
reliable. If you are unsure, then ask your healthcare professional.
If you have a disease or condition that elevates your blood uric acid
level (>10 mg/dL), such as gout, your blood glucose results may not
be reliable. If you are unsure, then ask your healthcare professional.
If you are taking high doses of Tolazamide (> 20 mg/dL in your blood),
then you should know that this drug might affect the reliability of your
blood glucose results. If you are unsure, then ask your healthcare
professional.
Xylose: Do not test blood glucose during or soon after a xylose
absorption test. Xylose in the blood can give falsely elevated results.
