When to Test with Control Solution:

 

  • OneTouch Ultra® Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose and is used to check that the meter and the test strips are working properly.
  • Do a control solution test:
    • whenever you open a new vial of test strips.
    • if you suspect the meter and test strips are not working properly.
    • if you have had repeated unexpected blood glucose results.
    • if you drop or damage the meter.
  • Note:
    • Use only OneTouch Ultra® Control Solution with your OneTouch® Ultra® 2 Meter.
    • Control solution tests must be done at room temperature (68–77°F). Make sure your meter, test strips, and control solution are at room temperature before testing.
    • Write the discard date (3 months after first opening the vial) on the vial label when you first open it.
  • CAUTION: Do Not swallow control solution; it is not for human consumption. Do Not apply control solution to the skin or eyes as it may cause irritation.
