Alphatrak 2 for human testing?

[Nancy Lynne]

I've seen lots of posts about using human meters for cats but not the other way around. I have an Alphatrak 2 that I've been using and I need to start tracking my own blood sugar and was hoping there's some way I can use that and not have to buy another meter.

Thanks!

Caution: The AlphaTRAK 2 test strips are not intended for human blood glucose testing
I found this on the Zoetis site
The strips are set for animal codes

You can buy the Relion Prime from Walmart it's 9 dollars
The strips are 17.88 for 100 strips

I would get a regular human meter.

@Nancy Lynne - I second Diane Tyler's Mum. Here is Our Per 2018 Human Meters and Walmarts Models and Specifics you can read up on first before you buy one

It's a lot to suddenly juggle, I know. But we are here.
