3.1 Alternate Site Testing (AST)
The Dr Trust Gold Standard Test Strips allow for alternate site testing (AST) from areas such as the upper arm, forearm, hand, fingertips, thigh, and calf. This can help minimize bruising and scarring. Consult your healthcare professional before using AST, as results from alternate sites may differ from fingertip results, especially during periods of rapid glucose change (e.g., after a meal, exercise, or during hypoglycemia).
4. പരിപാലനവും സംഭരണവും
- ടെസ്റ്റ് സ്ട്രിപ്പുകൾ: Store test strips in their original vial at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the vial cap tightly closed immediately after removing a strip. Do not refrigerate or freeze.

- നീക്കം ചെയ്യൽ: Always dispose of used test strips and lancets in a puncture-resistant sharps container to prevent accidental injury.
