BGM & Diabetes Care: How Test Strips Improve Daily Health

 

Checking your blood sugar regularly lets you understand how your body responds to food and medicine, making it easier to avoid long-term complications. Of the different ways to measure blood glucose, using On Call Express test strips with a compatible meter is one of the easiest. These strips require only a tiny drop of your blood, making testing quick and less messy than traditional methods.

 

Here at Steede Medical, we carry On Call Express test strips known for their consistent accuracy and trusted performance. When used with the On Call Express Meter, they help you monitor your blood sugar with confidence and allow you to stay on track with your diabetes care plan.

 

Why should you monitor your blood sugar daily?

 

Daily blood glucose monitoring gives you valuable insights to help you stay in control of your health. Regular testing allows you to:

 

·     See how your medication affects your blood glucose levels

·     Track your progress in managing your diabetes

·     Adjust your doses with guidance from your healthcare team

·     Understand how your diet and daily physical activities are affecting your blood glucose levels.

·     Take immediate action when you see high or low readings

·     Notice how factors like stress and illness influence your results

 

With all this information, you can make informed decisions about your health and reduce your risk of unexpected diabetes complications.

 

What makes On Call Express test strips better?

 

ACON On Call Express test strips come in boxes of 50 and feature built-in auto-calibration, so you never need to code your meter. Each strip works with only 0.4 microliters of blood, and the meter displays your result in just 4 seconds.

 

These strips are known for reliable accuracy, even when you test from alternate sites such as your forearm or palm. When paired with the On Call Express Meter, you also get helpful features like audible fill detection and the ability to apply a second drop of blood within 3 seconds, reducing wasted strips.

 

Get immediate feedback

 

When paired with the On Call Express meter, these test strips will give you results in about four seconds. This quick turnaround allows you to respond right away, whether that means adjusting what you eat or modifying activity.

Learn how your lifestyle is affecting your blood glucose levels

 

With the On Call meter and test strips, you can log accurate results to identify important patterns. You can see how certain meals or activities influence your glucose levels. These insights make it easier to manage your diabetes thoughtfully and adjust your routine based on what your body needs. Your healthcare provider can then review your results and evaluate how well your current treatment plan and lifestyle adjustments are working.

 

Avoid long-term complications
