Freestyle Lite Test Strips (2025)

What are the Freestyle Lite Test Strips?

Freestyle Lite test strips help check blood sugar levels. They are easy to use and give accurate results with just a tiny drop of blood.

Here are the blood glucose meters that are compatible with Freestyle Lite test strips:

• FreeStyle
• FreeStyle Lite
• FreeStyle Freedom
• FreeStyle Freedom Lite
• Other FreeStyle blood glucose meters

Freestyle Lite test strips only need a small drop of blood. You can take the sample from your finger, hand, or arm.

These diabetes test strips are safe at home or in a clinic. Anyone who must check their blood sugar levels often can confidently use them.

They make testing quick and less stressful, which supports better daily health.

Product Specifications

• Freestyle Lite test strips give accurate and reliable blood sugar readings. They are easy to use and trusted for daily diabetes care.
• These strips can measure blood sugar levels between 20 and 500 mg/dL, equivalent to 1.1 to 27.8 mmol/L. They are matched to lab test results, so comparing your readings with professional tests is easy.
• The strips were tested in laboratory and real-life situations using the YSI Glucose Analyzer. For readings below 75 mg/dL, all results were within 10 mg/dL of the lab values. For readings above 75 mg/dL, 95 percent of results were within 10 percent of the lab values.
• These test strips are made to give you consistent and dependable results every time you check your blood sugar.

How to Use Abbott Freestyle Lite Test Strips?

1. Choose a testing spot like your finger, hand, forearm, upper arm, calf, or thigh.
2. Wash the area with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry it well. Rub the spot gently, except the finger, to help bring blood to the surface.
3. Insert a test strip into the meter. Most meters turn on automatically. If yours does not, turn it on manually.
4. If your meter uses codes, check that the code on the screen matches the one on the test strip bottle.
5. Use your lancing device to get a small drop of blood from the cleaned area.
6. Touch one side of the test strip to the blood drop. If the strip does not fill fully, add more blood to the same spot within 60 seconds.
7. Do not touch both edges or place blood on the strip.
8. Once the strip is filled, the meter will beep or show moving lines to indicate it is reading.
9. Check the number on the screen to see your blood sugar result.
10. A normal fasting level for someone without diabetes is less than 110 mg/dL or 6.1 mmol/L. It should be less than 140 mg/dL or 7.8 mmol/L two hours after eating.
11. If your result is below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L), or if you feel unwell, test again with a new strip.
12. If the second result does not seem accurate or does not feel right to you, consult your doctor.

Warning and Precautions

• Always check the expiry date before using a test strip. Expired strips can give false results, which may lead to poor diabetes control.
• Never change your diabetes medication based on your test result without consulting your doctor. Making changes without medical advice can be risky and lead to health problems.
• Do not use the strips during a xylose absorption test. This test can affect the accuracy of your blood sugar reading and cause incorrect results.
• During testing, only blood is applied to one side of the strip. Adding blood to both sides may result in an inaccurate result.
• Ensure your meter is set to the correct unit, mg/dL or mmol/L. Using the wrong unit can lead to confusion when reading your blood sugar level.
• If you use a test strip with a control solution and the result is outside the expected range, retest with a new strip. If it is still out of range, do not use the meter until you get a correct result with the control solution.
• Test results can vary depending on where you take the blood sample. Finger readings are often more accurate, especially after meals, insulin use, or physical activity. If your blood sugar is low or you do not feel well, always test from your finger.
• If you use an alternate site, like your forearm, rub the area first to help bring blood to the surface. This makes the reading closer to the one you would get from your finger.
• Severe dehydration can give a false low blood sugar result. If you feel thirsty, dizzy, or weak, contact your doctor for advice and do not rely on the test result.
• The strips come in a vial that contains drying agents to protect them from moisture. Do not inhale, swallow, or let these agents touch your skin or eyes. Keep the vial closed when not in use.
• The strips and their parts are small and can be a choking hazard. To prevent accidents, keep them away from children and pets.
• After using test strips or lancets, dispose of them properly, as they may contain blood. Follow local rules for medical waste to protect yourself and others from infection.

Storage and Handling

Always throw away test strips after the expiry date shown on the vial. Using expired strips can give false results.

After you remove a test strip from the vial, close the cap immediately. This helps protect the rest of the strips from air and moisture. Use the strip immediately after taking it out.

Keep the test strips in their original vial with the cap tightly closed. Do not move them to another container, which can affect their quality.

Store the test strips at room temperature. For best results, check your meter booklet for the correct temperature range.

Do not expose the strips to extreme heat or cold. This can damage the strips and affect your test results.

Never bend, cut, or change the test strips. They are made to work in a specific way, and changing them can cause problems.

Always wash and dry your hands before touching the test strips. Clean hands help keep the strips free from dirt and moisture that could affect your reading.
