OneTouch Ultra Test Strips Vial
      How should I store my OneTouch Ultra® test strips?
      • Keep test strips in a cool, dry place between 5°C and 30°C. The meter and test strips should be about the same temperature before you test. Do Not test if there is condensation (water build-up) on the meter. Move your meter and test strips to a cool, dry spot and wait for the meter surface to dry before testing.
      • Do Not open the test strip vial until you are ready to remove a test strip and perform a test. Use the test strip immediately after removing it from the vial.
      • Tightly close the cap on the vial immediately after use to avoid contamination and damage.
      • Store unused test strips only in their original vial.
      • Do Not return the used test strip to the vial after performing a test.
      • Do Not re-use a test strip that had blood, control solution, or any contaminants applied to it. Test strips are for single use only.
      • With clean, dry hands, you may touch the test strip anywhere on its surface. Do Not bend, cut or modify the test strip in any way.
      • When you first open a vial of test strips, record the discard date on the label. Refer to the test strip insert or vial label for instructions on determining the discard date.
