Caring for Your Test Strips
Storage conditions: 39.2°F to 104°F (4°C to 40°C), below 85%
relative humidity. Do NOT freeze.
Store your test strips in their original vial only. Do not transfer to
another container.
Store test strip packages in a cool dry place. Keep away from direct
sunlight and heat.
After removing a test strip from the vial, immediately close the vial
cap tightly.
Touch the test strip with clean and dry hands.
Use each test strip immediately after removing it from the vial.
Write the opening date on the vial label when you first opened it.
Discard remaining test strips after 3 months.
Do not use test strips beyond the expiration date. This may cause
inaccurate results.
Do not bend, cut, or alter a test strip in any way.
Keep the strip vial away from children since the cap and the test
strip may be a choking hazard. If swallowed, promptly see a doctor
for help.
For further information, please refer to the test strip package insert.
