The Ongoing Cost: Test Strips
The meter is a one-off purchase; the strips are not. Every test consumes one strip, so the long-run cost of owning a meter depends mainly on the strip price and how often you test. When comparing meters, look at the strip cost per box and how many strips a box contains — not just the meter price.
Also check strip availability. A meter whose strips are hard to source locally is inconvenient regardless of how cheap the meter itself was.
What to Check Before Buying
- Sample size and test time. Smaller sample requirements and shorter countdown times make routine testing easier.
- Memory capacity. Stored readings let you review trends and share them with a clinician.
- Strip compatibility. Confirm which strip model the meter takes, and that those strips are stocked.
- Display clarity. Large digits matter if the meter will be used by an older adult.
- Lancing device included. Most kits include one; check what is in the box.
Using a Glucometer Safely
- Wash and dry your hands before testing — residue on the fingertips can affect a reading.
- Use a new lancet each time and adjust the depth setting for your skin.
- Use the side of the fingertip rather than the pad, which is more sensitive.
- Insert the strip before applying the sample, and hold the sample to the strip edge as instructed.
- Record the result along with the time and whether you had eaten recently.
Blood glucose targets and testing frequency are individual. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Bangladesh, and the WHO both recommend that people with diabetes follow a monitoring plan set by their own health professional — do not adjust medication or diet based on a reading alone.
Meter or Strip Problem?
If a reading looks inconsistent with how you feel, do not immediately assume the number is correct or incorrect. Repeat the test with a fresh strip, check the strip expiry date and storage conditions, and contact your clinician if readings remain unexpected.
