How should I store and care for my test strips?

Glucose test strips should be stored at 2°C to 32°C (35.6°F to 89.6°F) and β-Ketone test strips at 2°C to 30°C (35.6°F to 86°F), both below 85% relative humidity — do not freeze. Always store glucose test strips in their original vial, close the cap tightly after removing a strip, and write the opening date on the vial label, discarding any remaining strips after 6 months. Do not use test strips beyond their expiry date, and do not bend, cut, or alter a strip in any way. (Page 25)
