Hello, Thanks for the query. Glucometers are well calibrated, hene show correct glucose values. If one does not believe, then get the venous blood checked in a lab. Most of the diabetes patients on Insulin and mny on oral drugs do their glucose level checking at home on glucometers, what is called Self Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG). Thanks.
