Hi, I was using Contour TS glucometer until today, but I see that the strips are not available for the same in the market.

Is there another high accuracy glucometer.

I am using Onetouch verio flex glucometer and find it good.

I am using Accu Chek active and it is good for two reasons, one it is economical ie Rs 13.50 per strip if you buy 100 and no strip is cheaper than this, secondly it is comparable with lab readings to an extent of 5 to 10 %.

It is very costly and not available in India. I am already using Bayer's brand currently (Contour ts)

Okay.😀

Low cost is Accuchek Performa or Accuchek Performa Nano

Available only for Drs but we can buy from ebay.in

No guarantee. But costs low. Meter will cost around Rs 1500 & each strip around Rs 9 to 10/- in ebay itself .

Been using for last 2 years.

As accurate as other meters.
