Dear OneTouch®FastTake®System Owner:
You have chosen one of the best blood glucose monitoring
systems available today. Inside this booklet is everything you
must know about using the OneTouch®FastTake®System. Read
it carefully and thoroughly before you begin testing.
Your OneTouch®FastTake®System provides you with accurate,
plasma-calibrated test results. This feature makes it easier for you
and your doctor to compare your meter results with laboratory
results. If you’ve been using a blood glucose meter that doesn’t
give plasma-calibrated test results, you may notice that your
results with the OneTouch®FastTake®System will be about 12%
higher.
Blood glucose monitoring plays an important role in diabetes
control. A long-term study showed that keeping blood glucose
levels close to normal can reduce the risk of diabetes
complications by up to 60%.* The results you get with the
OneTouch®FastTake®System can help you and your healthcare
professional monitor and adjust your treatment plan to gain
better control of your diabetes.
A warranty registration card is included with your OneTouch®
FastTake®System. Please complete it and mail it to us. If you
prefer to fill out a warranty card online, please visit

The OneTouch®FastTake®System is intended for use outside the
body (in vitro diagnostic use). It should be used only for testing
glucose (sugar) and only with fresh capillary whole blood
samples. It should not be used for the diagnosis of diabetes or for
the testing of newborns.
CAUTION: Before using any product to test your blood sugar
(blood glucose), read all instructions and practice the test. Do all
quality control checks as directed and consult with a diabetes
healthcare professional. These recommendations apply to all
blood glucose monitoring systems and are supported by the
American Association of Diabetes Educators, the American
Diabetes Association, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Important Information
• Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause false
low results. If you believe you are suffering from severe
dehydration, consult a healthcare professional immediately.
• Test results below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) mean low blood
glucose (hypoglycemia). Test results greater than 240 mg/dL
(13.3 mmol/L) mean high blood glucose (hyperglycemia). If you
get results below 60 mg/dL or above 240 mg/dL, and do not
have symptoms, first repeat the test. If you have symptoms
or continue to get results that fall below 60 mg/dL or above
240 mg/dL, follow the treatment advice of your healthcare
professional.
• If you are experiencing symptoms that are not consistent with
your blood glucose test results AND you have followed all
instructions described in the OneTouch®FastTake®Owner’s
Booklet, call your healthcare professional.
• A red blood cell count (hematocrit) that is very high (above
55%) or very low (below 30%) can cause false results.
