Description
Microdot Xtra blood glucose test strips
Reason
The firm reported that a faulty cutting/punching machine did not meet specifications after being fitted with new blades and did not correctly "notch" BG test strips intended for use in the US. The impacted strips did not fit into the inlet port of the BG meter, therefore resulting in a delay in BG testing and results.
Action
On July 26, 2018, the firm sent an email to it's US distributor that requested a sub-recall.
