˙ Sites Other Than Fingertip
Please refer to the section of "About Alternative Site Testing (AST)" for possible
punctured sites.
˙Choose a different spot each time you test. Repeated punctures at the
same spot may cause soreness and calluses.
˙Before you decide to begin AST, please consult your health
professional.
˙It is recommended that you discard the first drop of blood as it might
contain tissue fluid and serum, which may affect the test result.
