Accu Chek Active Test Strip contains Blood glucose test strips (for in-vitro diagnostic use) compatible with Accu-Chek Active glucometer. It belongs to the In-vitro diagnostic medical device (blood glucose test strips) class of medicines.
The strip contains enzymes and reagents that react with glucose in a small drop of capillary blood. The glucometer measures the electrical/optical signal from this reaction and calculates the blood glucose level.
Use only with Accu-Chek Active meter. Insert strip as per meter instructions, apply a fresh finger-prick blood drop to the test area, and read the result on the meter. Use a new strip for each test; do not reuse. Test at times recommended by your clinician (e.g., fasting, before/after meals).
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Take the missed dose of Accu Chek Active Test Strip as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and carry on with the usual schedule. Do not take two doses together to make up for a missed dose.
Taking more Accu Chek Active Test Strip than prescribed can be harmful. If you suspect an overdose, contact a doctor or go to the nearest emergency department at once, and carry the pack or strip with you. In India the emergency number is 112.
