How accurate are CONTOUR®NEXT Test Strips?

CONTOUR®NEXT Test Strips are designed with advanced technology to provide highly accurate results in seconds when used with a CONTOUR®NEXT meter.1, 4, 6, 7 They meet or exceed industry standards, delivering readings that are within ±10% of lab measurements. This means you can trust the readings to manage your diabetes effectively. For more detailed information on accuracy and performance, please refer to the Insert under the Resources section at the bottom of this page.

How do I know if I need to apply more blood to my test strip?

The Second-Chance® Sampling feature will cause your meter to beep twice and display a flashing test strip icon. Within 60 seconds, apply more blood to the test strip so there is enough for the meter to measure your blood glucose. Once you have added enough blood, the meter will automatically take a reading as usual.

What is the benefit of No Coding® technology?

No Coding® technology eliminates the need for manual calibration or entering a code before testing. Each lot of test strips contain embedded calibration information in the strip pattern itself. When a test strip is inserted, the meter automatically reads this information and calibrates accordingly.

Reviews

Contour Test Strips

"I have been using Ascensia Contour Next test strips for many years. I have found that they are easy to find and very accurate. If I have a number out range of what I think it should be, my immediate second test almost always gives me close to the same number. On the rare occasion it doesn't, it usually means I did not follow all the steps to take the reading correctly, and not the strip being defective. I have tried many brands, and used many apps. Some were free apps associated with the product and some paid for and not associated with any product. Realizing we all are looking for different information, for me the Ascensia Contour Next App has what I need. Instant, weekly, 14 day, monthly, 3-month average and daily history. The Ascensia Contour Next Gen meter syncs effortlessly with the Ascensia Contour Next App on my Apple cellphone."

— Paul L. (5/5)

The Contour glucometer is very

"The Contour glucometer is very easy to use, with a simple setup and fast, accurate readings. Its companion app syncs automatically and helps track glucose levels with clear trends and insights. Together, they provide a convenient and effective way to manage diabetes daily."

— RAMIRO S. (5/5)

— Diana S. (5/5)

Marcella

"Strips are great. Only require tiny drop of blood. you get a second chance to add more blood."

— Diana S. (5/5)

Acurr

"Out of all the glucometer systems I've tried, and Ive tried them all, the contour next system is the best. It's the most stable and the most accurate I've tried. It's good enough that I'm willing to pay out of pocket for the accuracy instead of what my insurance wants to cover in their new formulary for 2026."

— Joseph J. (5/5)

Easy, economical

"Didn't get much help from my doctor's office after being put on Metformin and getting a script for glucometer but Contour site was easy and price was right. Hoping I don't have to use it for long."

— DEBRA C. (5/5)

Test strips

"I have been using these test strips for 3 yrs now and like them so much I started paying out of pocket when my insurance company no longer covered them"

— Judith F. (5/5)

Love the large volume box!

"I love the Contour Next glucose monitor and strips! When I first learned I needed to monitor my blood glucose I researched monitors and found the Contour Next to be the most accurate of all the manual monitors and the strips are the best for that monitor. I especially appreciate that they come 70 strips to a box."

— Laura G. (5/5)

"I bought these glucose strips at a great price, it was the best deal I saw online. The delivery was fast and I didn't have any issues with my purchase!"

— Amalia C. (5/5)

Great price for a wonderful product
