Good morning to all, I am new in the forum and I would like to know your opinions about these meters: "Breeze2" (from Bayer), "One Touch Ultra Easy" (from J & Amp; J), "Opium XCed" (of Abbott) andThe "Aviva Nano" (from Acuchack).
They all seem very similar to me.I would appreciate any comments about any of them.
Thank you very much in advance!

The choice depends on each person, their needs and their characteristics ...

Unless you have prescribed medications that include icodextrin (peritoneal dialisis or in dilutions for parenteral via) the choice is indifferent.
More information about icodextrine and glucose measurement: Link ... 202010.pdf

The XCed has the advantage of being able to measure ketones with the same device, especially useful in bomb therapy.

Personally, Lifescan glucometers seem to me the most worked in terms of benefits, comfort and reliability.

As Gondurulo always comments, it is absurd to reduce the size of the glucometers if the strips boat is huge ... and that is what happens to Roche's Nano.
