(Amber)
Within Target Range
(Green)
Below Target Range
(Red)
99% of patients** found the red, green and amber target range indicators are simple to understand compared to those who did not.1
A target range indicator may help improve HbA1c control compared to BGMs without a target range indicator5
Individual target ranges can be easily set directly on the meter in 'Settings'†
