| | Product Description | |
| The Chemcard Glucose Test is a simple, effective screening test which is used to identify abnormally high fasting plasma glucose (blood sugar) levels which are often a warning sign of diabetes. Chemcard Glucose is a 3 minute test which requires a single drop of blood obtained from a fingerstick, requires no instruments, and was shown in clinical trials to be 94 to 99.95 percent accurate in identifying normal and abnormal fasting plasma glucose levels. Chemcard Glucose requires no instruments and is FDA 510(k) approved for both home use and in doctor's offices. Chemcard Glucose is not intended for use by persons who are known to be diabetic, or who are pregnant. | |
