Simplicity

Regardless of your lifestyle, living with diabetes adds to your mental strain. For some people, the shock of the news, the consequences of this disease and managing the blood sugar level can have negative effects on the treatment.1 In order to help them to better manage their condition and ease their everyday life as much as possible to make it as healthy as possible, the Accu-Chek Guide system has several advantages that make a major difference in the daily routine. Discover the spill-resistant vial designed to hold the strips in place, even upside down. You can easily remove one strip at a time with this innovative strip container. Also, don't miss the target with the strip featuring the widest* dosing area on the market. A drop of blood can be applied to any part of the strip yellow edge.

You should also note that a test strip ejection button on the meter allows easy, hygienic strip disposal and a bright port light and backlit display make visibility easy, day or night. This way you can test your blood sugar level everywhere and at all times - even in a crowded public place! It will be child's play, and will help keep you active for a long time!
