Recording Your Results
Always record your blood sugar results after testing. This helps you and your healthcare professional find
patterns in your blood sugar results. This information helps you better manage your diabetes, reducing your
chances for complications. Record your results in the self-test diary included in your kit or on your computer.
Storing Your Supplies
Make sure you close the test strip vial and control solution bottles tightly after each use.
You can keep all your testing supplies in the carrying case. Store the carrying case (and everything in it)
where it won’t be exposed to extreme temperatures or moisture. Your bedroom may be a good place.

!
Never store test strips in areas of extreme temperatures (cold or high heat) or moisture,
such as the kitchen, bathroom or laundry room – heat and moisture can damage them,
and lead to inaccurate results.
