Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the McKesson TRUE METRIX different from the standard TRUE METRIX?
They utilize the same core technology and are manufactured by the same company (Trividia Health). The McKesson brand is often distributed through healthcare facilities and professional providers, ensuring they meet rigorous standards for accuracy and reliability.
Can I test on my forearm instead of my finger?
Yes, these strips allow for alternate site testing (AST). Testing on the forearm may be less painful, but it is recommended to test on the fingertip when blood glucose is changing rapidly (such as after a meal or exercise).
Does "No Coding" mean the meter is easier to use?
Absolutely. Older meters required you to enter a code from the strip box to ensure the meter was calibrated. No-coding technology does this automatically, saving you time and preventing the errors that come from using the wrong code.
