In November 2019, the TGA issued a product defect notification for Roche Accu-Chek Guide and Performa blood glucose meters, but it didn't recall the malfunctioning devices
Interesting I have only just got a Accu Chek Guide meter, currently I'm doing 6 tests a day, primarily to see what effect certain foods have on my blood sugar levels. As I am a member of the NDSS meters are supplied free and test strips are subsidized. If a meter fails then a quick trip to a participating for a new one.
