Accu-Chek Softclix - Manual (Page 2)

AST testing is not recommended for people with a history of
recurrent hypoglycemia, who suspect their blood glucose is
extremely low, or who are unaware of hypoglycemic events.
NEVER
ignore symptoms of high or low blood sugar.
Do not change your treatment based on one result.
If the AST reading does not match how you feel, perform a
fingertip test to confirm your results. If your blood glucose still
does not reflect the way you feel, contact your doctor. For more
information on AST testing, please contact the ACCU‑CHEK
Customer Care Service Center at 1‑800‑858‑8072.
Wash the nonfingertip site with warm water.
