FAQs

Can I use this with my AlphaTRAK 2 meter?

No, the AlphaTRAK 3 Control Solution is only compatible with the AlphaTRAK 3 blood glucose monitoring system.

How often should I use the control solution?

It is recommended to use the control solution whenever you open a new vial of test strips or if you suspect the meter or strips are not working correctly.

Where can I find the acceptable range for the test?

The acceptable range for your control test is printed on the label of your current vial of AlphaTRAK 3 test strips.

How should I store the bottles?

Keep the bottles tightly sealed and stored at room temperature, avoiding extreme heat or freezing conditions.

Does the control solution expire?

Yes, check the expiration date printed on the bottles. Do not use the solution if it has passed its expiration date.

Troubleshooting

Control solution result is outside the target range

Repeat the test with a new, unused strip. Ensure the solution was applied correctly and the strip was not expired.

Meter does not recognize the control solution

Ensure you are using the correct test strip type for the AlphaTRAK 3 and check that the strip is fully inserted into the meter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The AlphaTRAK 3 Control Solution is strictly designed for the AlphaTRAK 3 system. Before starting, check the expiration date on the bottles to ensure validity. Always store the bottles tightly closed at room temperature away from direct sunlight or extreme heat.
