What glucose meters are you using in your outpatient offices? We were using the McKesson True Metrix Pro in all of my offices, but it currently has an FDA recall notice. I have to make a quick decision for a replacement!

Initially, I just updated my procedure to reflect what to do if you get this error. Then the guidance changed to replacing them. I am signed up for a weekly email for FDA notices and recalls. That is where I originally found it. I did not get the information from McKesson or the company.
However, for people using this meter in a home setting, they do recommend considering transitioning to another method, so this may be causing the confusion. In a clinic setting, we should be using the True Metrix Pro, which is intended for multiple patient use.
We were using the Roche Performa meters but they strips were sun downed- 12/2025
