Caution: If your glucose result is below 2.8 mmol/L (50 mg/dL), above 13.9 mmol/L (250 mg/dL) or

if the meter shows “HI” or “LO,” test again. If your glucose level is still below 2.8 mmol/L (50 mg/dL), above 13.9 mmol/L (250 mg/dL), or if the meter again shows “HI” or “LO,” it may indicate a potentially serious medical condition.

If this is the case: We recommend you consult your physician or healthcare professional immediately.

Caution: Any changes in medication based on Ascensia® BREEZE blood glucose results without the advice of a physician or healthcare professional is not recommended.
