Chapter 2: Control Solution Testing
Why Run A Control Solution Test
We recommend that you run the EASYMAX®Level 2 control test because it lets you know that your
meter and test strips are working properly to give reliable results. You should run the control solution
tests when:
You think the meter or test strips may be working incorrectly.
You drop the meter.
You have repeated a test and the test results are still lower or higher than expected.
Professional users are instructed to follow federal, state, and local guidelines.
