Frequently asked questions
Can the test strips be reused?
No. The blood glucose test strips are for single use only and should never be reused. Reusing a used test strip will not provide accurate results. It is strongly advised to always discard after one use.
What are the benefits of a glucometer?
It is well known that testing blood glucose levels with a glucometer at home is one of the best ways to manage diabetes. It can help test blood glucose at any time of the day and anywhere. Using a portable glucometer is the best way to test glucose when travelling. Charting of blood glucose levels becomes easy with glucometers especially with devices having memory options to store previous readings. These on-time blood glucose monitors can help keep the blood glucose level in check and better manage diabetes.
What is a normal glucometer reading?
According to the American Diabetes Association, the fasting or preprandial blood glucose levels for individuals with diabetes should lie between the range of 80 – 130 mg/dl and postprandial (1-2 hours after meals) should be less than 180 mg/dl. However, the range mentioned in the glucose monitor may be a little different. So, it is advised to consult a doctor to calibrate the results with the lab reports.
How often should the blood glucose be tested?
For type 1 diabetes, checking the blood glucose levels several times a day (pre and post-meals, before and after exercise) is needed or as advised by the doctor. Whereas, for type 2 diabetes, the frequency of monitoring the sugar levels might be based on the severity of the condition, which can be several times a day, once a day, or thrice a week. Therefore, it would be best to consult a doctor about how often blood glucose should be tested.
