Q. Why should I test my
blood glucose (sugar)?
A. No doubt your healthcare
professional has explained the
importance of keeping your
diabetes under control. Your
ONE TOUCH II System helps
you check whether or not you
are under control by monitor-
ing your blood glucose levels.
The test results provide a good
picture of how diet, exercise,
and medication are affecting
your diabetes.
Test results can also indicate
whether your diabetes is
changing in ways that might
require an adjustment in your
treatment program.
CAUTION: A blood
glucose monitoring pro-
gram should be conducted
under the guidance of a
healthcare professional.
Always consult your
healthcare professional
before making changes in
your diabetes control plan.
