Product Description
FreeStyle Optium Test Strips utilize advanced glucose oxidase technology to deliver precise blood glucose readings with minimal interference from common substances like vitamin C or paracetamol. Each strip features a large, easy-to-handle design with a visual fill confirmation window that turns blue when sufficient blood is applied, reducing errors. Compatible with FreeStyle Optium, Optium Xceed, and Optium Neo meters, they support alternate site testing to minimize fingertip pain. Individually wrapped to protect from moisture and contamination, the strips maintain accuracy for up to 24 months when stored properly. Ideal for daily self-monitoring to guide insulin dosing, diet, and exercise, they help achieve better glycemic control.
