Diabetes: Glucose Testing Strips Recalled

More than 1.7 million blood glucose testing strips used by diabetics are being recalled over potential false readings.

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) said people with diabetes should not use the strips over fears they could give inaccurate results, potentially leading to a patient injecting too much insulin.

There are no reports at present of patients being harmed by using the strips, the MHRA said.

The strips have been subject to a manufacturing fault. They are GlucoMen LX Sensor blood glucose test strips for use with the GlucoMen LX and GlucoMen LX PLUS blood glucose meter.

The affected lots are 3212219249 (expiry date 31/08/2014) and 3212214249 (expiry date 31/08/2014).
