Hi there.
My doctor has given me the Braun Omnitest3 blood sugar monitor to keep track of my sugar levels. Initially the pack came with a small amount of test strips with the code C17. I've just got some more, taken my reading and everything seems to work but I noticed that this new batch of strips whilst being Braun strips are called C14. I've looked on the net but can't seem to find anything. I can't get back to the chemist until tomorrow now so I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with this and new what the difference was?

Thanks loads.
Sean

test strips have different production codes the same as everything. as long as its the omitest strips (they wouldn't work if there wernt) then your fine.

Not sure seano68 is the meter code free if it isn't this may be the code you have to put in every time you use a new pot of strips if in doubt just give the makers of meter a ring I'm sure they will advise you let us know if you need more help?
