Frequently asked questions

Why do test strips matter more than the meter price?
You replace strips constantly, so their cost adds up quickly. A cheap meter with expensive strips usually costs more over a year. Compare strip prices before buying.
Do I need a prescription for a glucose meter?
No, most meters are sold over the counter. A prescription can lower the price and may be needed for insurance reimbursement.
How much blood does a meter need?
Modern meters often need a tiny sample, which makes fingertip testing less painful. Older or budget models may require a larger drop.
