OneTouch Ultra Control Solution Summary

Intended Use
ONE TOUCH Ultra Control Solution is used with ONE TOUCH® Ultra Brand Systems, the ONE TOUCH®, FastTake® System, and InDuo™ Brand Systems to check that the meter and test strips are working together as a system and that you are performing the test correctly. It is very important that you do control solution tests routinely to make sure you are getting accurate results.

Summary and Explanation
ONE TOUCH Ultra Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose that reacts with both ONE TOUCH® Ultra Test Strips and ONE TOUCH® FastTake® Test Strips (hereafter referred to as the "test strips"). A test with control solution is similar to a blood test except that you use ONE TOUCH Ultra Control Solution instead of a drop of blood. The test result using control solution should fall within an expected range of results that you will find printed on the vial of test strips that you are using.

CAUTION: The control solution range printed on the test strip vial is for control solution only. It is used to test meter arid test strip performance. It is not a recommended range for your blood glucose level.

Before you use your meter to test your blood 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. Also, do a control solution test:

• When you begin using a new vial of test strips.
• At least once a week.
• Whenever you suspect that the meter or test strips are not working properly.
• When your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you feel, or when you think your results are not accurate.
• If you drop the meter.

A single control solution test that is within the expected range is enough to tell you that the meter and test strips are working together and that you are doing the test properly.

Chemistry
ONE TOUCH Ultra Control Solution is a red solution that contains about 0.11% D-glucose.

It also contains:
