Glucometer should be used for maximum of 2 years as after that calibration doesn't remain proper.
Also always check for expiry of strips and avoid Direct sunlight and heat over bottle of strips.
Once in a while keep cross checking with lab values.
Bring your glucometer to lab and check sugar immediately after giving blood sample.
