Checking with Control Solution
OneTouch ® Normal Control Solution
contains a known amount of glucose
that reacts with OneTouch
® Test
Strips. Control solution should be
used to practice the test procedure
and to make sure your meter and test
strips are working together properly
as a system.
Before you use the OneTouch ® Profile ®
Meter to test your blood glucose for
the first time, practice the procedure
using control solution. When you can
do three tests in a row that are within
the expected range, you are ready to
test your blood.
