Important Information
• Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause false
low results. If you believe you are suffering from severe
dehydration, consult a healthcare professional immediately.
• Test results below 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) mean low blood
glucose (hypoglycemia). Test results greater than 10.0 mmol/L
(180 mg/dL
1
) mean high blood glucose (hyperglycemia). If you
get results below 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) or above 10.0 mmol/L
(180 mg/dL), and do not have symptoms, first repeat the test. If
you have symptoms or continue to get results that fall below
3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) or above 10.0 mmol/L (180 mg/dL),
follow the treatment advice of your healthcare professional.
• If you are experiencing symptoms that are not consistent with
your blood glucose test results AND you have followed all
instructions described in the OneTouch

• A red blood cell count (hematocrit) that is very high (above
55%) or very low (below 30%) can cause false results.
