Advocate Redi-Code Control Solution
Description
Make sure your Advocate Redi-Code+ Meter and Test Strips are working as intended with Advocate Redi-Code Control Solution! With this solution, you’ll be able to check up on your meter’s functionality without the use of a blood sample.
This product contains a single vial filled with 4 ml of control solution.
Directions
To perform a control solution test with your Advocate meter, insert a test strip and wait for the meter to turn on. Then, enter CTL mode by pressing the “M” button three times. Shake your vial of control solution, squeeze it and discard the first drop, wipe off the bottle’s tip, and squeeze the bottle again. The second drop should be placed on a clean surface.
When you’ve done this, place the meter in contact with the drop of control solution until it starts counting down. Your results will appear after five seconds; when they do, compare them to the range that appears on your test strip vial. If it is out of this range, continue to perform control solution tests. If the results of these tests continue to show problems, do not use your meter for blood glucose testing and call 1-877-394-1655 for further assistance.
