In Home Glucose Monitoring

AlphaTRAK Kit and pets with owners

Giving Pet Owners the Tools They Need

Monitoring blood glucose levels at home is a valuable tool in helping maintain a pet's proper diabetic regulation. Since this monitoring is best done under a pet's typical daily conditions, it's helpful for pet owners to get accurate readings at home with the AlphaTRAK® Meter from Abbott Animal Health.

The AlphaTRAK Meter is calibrated specifically for the unique properties of animal blood and provides convenient, accurate blood glucose results with a very small blood sample size. In fact, in a study of glucose monitor used in pets the AlphaTRAK Meter was found to be the most accurate in-home option.
