Why do you need to know if I am a diabetic?
Diabetics do not have to pay VAT but unfortunately most pharmacies and retailers will require you to pay the full price including VAT and will leave you to fill out a long form to claim the VAT back. But if you buy from us, all you need to do is to confirm you are a diabetic from the drop down menu and you will be charged the price excluding VAT
*Please note you must select an option from all 3 drop down menus to get the correct price* But why would I need this Monitor if I am not diabetic? Whilst the SD CodeFree Blood Glucose Monitoring System is designed to be used primarily by diabetics, it can also be used to give an accurate diagnosis to determine if you are diabetic.What unit of measurement are the results displayed in?This Monitor will display the results in mg/dL. This is the standard for measuring blood glucose in the US and a number of other countries. If you are based in a country that uses mmol/L as standard then we do have a listing for a Monitor that measures in mmol/L here If you are unsure which measurement your country uses then you can check here.Please also note that to convert from mg/dL to mmol/L is pretty straightforward - just divide the mg/dL reading by 18.
Importance of Self-Monitoring your Blood Glucose Levels Many people think that there is no point in self-testing because they believe that they know when their blood glucose levels are too high. Unfortunately this is often not true and unless your blood glucose level is very high, the way you feel is not always a good or accurate guide to what is happening. The SD CodeFree Blood Glucose Monitoring System gives an accurate picture of your blood glucose level at the time of the test. It involves pricking your finger with the lancing device and putting a drop of blood on a testing strip. SD CodeFree Meter will read the result automatically. Using the Self-Test diary included in the pack to record your results will help you and your healthcare team work out whether your treatment needs to be adjusted.

What is Diabetes? Diabetes is a common life-long health condition where the amount of glucose in your blood is too high because the body cannot use it properly. This is because your pancreas does not produce any insulin, or not enough, to help glucose enter your body's cells - or the insulin that is produced does not work properly (known as insulin resistance). There are 2.8 million people diagnosed with diabetes in the UK and an estimated 850,000 people who have the condition but do not know it. More than three-quarters of people with diabetes have type 2 diabetes mellitus. This used to be known as non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) or maturity-onset diabetes mellitus. In type 2 diabetes, not enough insulin is produced or the insulin that is made by the body does not work properly. It tends to affect people as they get older and usually appears after the age of 40, but increasingly is seen in younger, overweight people. Depending on its severity, type 2 diabetes may be managed through diet and physical activity alone, oral medications or insulin injections, though a combination of these therapies are ideal for most cases. The remainder have type 1 diabetes mellitus, which used to be known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. In type 1 diabetes, the body is unable to produce any insulin. It usually starts in childhood or young adulthood, and is treated with diet control and insulin injections. For more information on diabetes, please visit the Diabetes UK website.
