Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How often should you test your blood glucose levels?
In the case of type 1 diabetes, check the blood glucose levels several times a day, such as pre and post-meals and before and after exercise or as advised by the doctor. Whereas, in the case of type 2 diabetes, 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. Hence, talk to the doctor about how often blood glucose levels should be tested.
Q. Can blood sugar strips be reused?
No. All the blood glucose test strips are for single use only. It is strongly advised always to discard a test strip after every use. Do not reuse a test strip, as it may not provide the appropriate results.
Q. How do blood glucose monitors work?
Diabetes devices or glucometers test the amount of glucose in the blood. The test strips in glucometers contain an enzyme glucose oxidase, which reacts with glucose in the blood and sends the result as an electronic signal displayed on the monitor.
