Accu-Chek Active - Manual (Page 8)

Health-Related Information
• Certain substances can interfere with the ACCU-CHEK Active blood glucose system and cause falsely high
results. For example, peritoneal dialysis solutions containing icodextrin (such as Extraneal) or certain
immunoglobulin therapies that contain maltose (such as Octagam 5%), cause inaccurate results. For more
information, refer to the Test Strip Package Insert, or ask your doctor.
• Some people with diabetes do not experience symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Others, such
as children or people who are unconscious or have certain disabilities, may not be able to communicate
their symptoms to caregivers. For these reasons, do not change any treatment without first talking to your
doctor.
• Run a control test when you open a new box of test strips or if you think that your test result is incorrect.
Running a control test lets you know that the meter and test strips are working properly.
