The Core control solution must be used with the Core blood glucose meter only.
Why perform a control solution test?
1. To ensure that your meter and test strip are working properly together.
2. To allow you to practice testing without using your own blood.
When should the control solution test be performed?
1. When you first get your Core meter, you can practice the procedure by using the control solution. When you can do three tests in a row that are within the expected range, you are ready to test your blood.
2. When you begin using a new vial of test strips.
3. Whenever you suspect that the meter or test strips are not working properly.
4. When your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you feel, or when you think your results are not accurate.
5. When test strips are exposed to extreme environmental conditions.
6. If you drop the meter.
For more information on how to perform a control test, navigate to our user manual tab and see section 6: "Control Solution Testing".
