Important iBGStar Information

The iBGStar® Blood Glucose Monitoring System should be used:

  • For measuring blood sugar levels from fresh capillary whole blood samples taken from the fingertip, palm (at the base of the thumb), or forearm.
  • For in vitro (i.e. outside of the body) diagnostic use only.
  • With BGStar® Blood Glucose Test Strips and BGStar® Control Solution only. Do not use other brands of test strips and control solution with this meter. This may produce inaccurate results.
  • For use at home — over the counter (OTC) — by persons with diabetes, or in a clinical setting by healthcare professionals, as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.

Do not use the iBGStar Blood Glucose Monitoring System for:

  • The diagnosis of diabetes.
  • Testing the glucose levels of neonates (children less than 4 weeks of age).
  • Testing glucose levels of arterial or venous blood.
  • Testing glucose from sites other than the fingertip, palm (at the base of the thumb), or forearm.
  • Alternative site results should never be used to calibrate a continuous glucose monitor (CGM).
  • Alternative site results should never be used in insulin dose calculations.
