AlphaTrak 3 is specifically calibrated for dogs and cats, with a simple design that makes testing and monitoring glucose levels easy for everyone. Humans, dogs, and cats each have differences in the ratios of glucose in plasma and red blood cells. Using a human meter in a dog or cat can lead to an underestimation of blood glucose concentrations and inaccurate readings. This starter kit comes with the AlphaTrak 3 Blood Glucose Monitor, 50 Test Strips, the AlphaTrak 3 Lancing Device, and 50 lancets.
