Question 1

what is the expiration date?

Accepted Answer

Mine expire 4/2020, and I probably bought them 6 or more months ago. So they last a while

Question 2

Why is there such a fluctutation in pricing for alpha trak 2 lancets and the test strips?

Accepted Answer

Because the lancet is just a sharp pointed metal piece that doesn’t cost very much to produce. The test strips contain intellectual property and cost more to produce. So they cost more to buy. That’s how they make a profit.

Question 3

Can i use the same test strips on the alpha trak from abbott?

Accepted Answer

I noticed the blue 28 gauge alphatrak lancets looked exactly like freestyle lancets for humans. I called zoetus and they told me the lancets are the exact same. Both from Abbott. The freestyle are available from Amazon and much cheaper than alphatrak ones. You can’t use human meter Orr test strips but the lancets just prick the skin.

Question 4

I ordered this for my cat which usually uses 37 but the lable said 38.  What is going on?

Accepted Answer

They switch codes sometimes I will get ones that say 38 for a while then I will get some that say 7 You just need to RESET YOUR CODE, to do this you stick one of the 38 labeled test strips into the meter like your going to do a test and let it come on when the number 37 appears *which I'm assuming that is what you were using use the C and M button to go up or down until your code is at the number 38 then take the test strip out and use it again when you go to take his/her blood.  I wish you luck.
