FDA Warns of Inadvertent Unit Switching on Blood Glucose Meters

According to this article on Medscape (free with registration), glucometres made by Abbott Diabetes Care may inadvertently switch between the American mg/dL and the international mmol/L, causing users to adjust their insulin incorrectly. This includes FreeStyle, FreeStyle Flash, FreeStyle Tracker, Precision Xtra, MediSense, Sof-Tact, Precision Sof-Tact, MediSense, Optium, and private label brands ReliOn Ultima, Rite Aid, and Kroger blood glucose metres. Those outside the US include Xceed, Liberty, Boots, Xtra Classic, Easy, and SofTrac devices.

I use One-Touch Ultra, which isn't included in this, but I thought I'd pass this along to others with diabetes who might use another metre.
