FAQs
What is Accu-Chek?
The Accu-Chek system is a quick, easy, and portable way to check blood sugar levels. Used by people with diabetes worldwide, Accu-Chek devices can report accurate blood glucose readings within seconds. Alpha Medical Solutions carries a wide range of Accu-Chek supplies to best meet the needs of our customers.
An Accu-Chek system requires three components to take a blood sugar reading:
- The metre system is a small device that interprets and displays the blood sugar level. It can be connected to phone apps to document and save information for later reference.
- The test strips have two sides — one that is inserted into the meter and one that contains a dosing area.
- Lancing devices are used to draw blood on the fingertip to be used for blood sugar readings. They are safe, easy to use, and virtually painless for the best possible experience.

How do Accu-Chek strips work?
There are two sides to an Accu-Chek test strip — the side that is inserted into the device and the side that contains the dosing area for the sample collection.
The device side of the strip contains a small microchip made from a very thin layer of gold. It has been etched to match the meter system’s circuit, so when it is inserted, the circuit is completed and ready to be used.
The dosing side soaks up the blood sample and converts the glucose present into an electrical current. The higher the blood sugar, the higher the electrical current. The monitor can display an accurate reading based on the strength of the current.
