Bayer Contour Next Test Strips - 70ct - Short Dated

Bayer Contour Next Test Strips - 70ct - Short Dated The same Contour Next strips, the same proven accuracy, at a fraction of the price. The only difference is how close the expiration date is. These are factory-sealed, unopened retail boxes of Contour Next blood glucose test strips (70 count) from Ascensia. Nothing about the strips themselves is different from a full-dated box. The printed expiration date is simply closer, and that is the entire reason the price drops. Pick your expiration window above: the nearer the date, the lower the price. What short dated actually means Unopened and factory sealed. Original retail packaging, never used, never repackaged. Full accuracy to the printed date. Test strips are rated to perform to specification right up to the expiration date on the vial. You choose the window. Select an expiration range above and the price adjusts with it. Built for people who test often. If 70 strips is a month of testing for you, full-dated shelf life is something you pay for and never use. Contour Next test strip features Seven readings per sample. Contour Next technology evaluates a single drop of blood seven times for exceptionally accurate results. No coding. Strips are ready to use straight out of the box. Tiny sample size of just 0.6 microliters. Fast 5-second countdown with pre-meal and post-meal markers. Second-chance sampling lets you reapply blood to the same strip, so a short fill does not waste a strip. What is included 70 Contour Next test strips, supplied as two sealed vials of 35 or one vial of 70, in the original retail box Meter compatibility These strips work with every Contour Next meter: the Contour Next EZ, the Contour Next One, Contour Next Link and Contour Next Link 2.4. They do not work with the older Bayer Contour meter, which uses Contour strips rather than Contour Next. Common questions How close is the expiration date? It matches the rung you pick above. Each option is labelled with the actual month printed on the box, and that label rolls forward automatically as stock moves, so what you see is what ships. Are these genuine Contour Next strips? Yes. Factory-sealed US retail boxes, stored in a climate-controlled warehouse and lot tracked. We never buy Medicare or Medicaid labelled stock. Will they still read accurately? Ascensia rates the strips to full specification up to the printed expiration date. A short-dated box performs the same as a long-dated one until that date passes. Why does the carton say not for retail sale, or Rx only? Some Contour Next cartons carry that print because of how the manufacturer routes the box, not because the strips are different or restricted. The strips inside are identical. What if I will not use them all before they expire? Pick a longer window. The 3 month and 2 month rungs cost a little more and give you more runway. At two tests a day, 70 strips is a little over a month. Looking for something else?
