I wouldn't recommend using outdated strips but if you must you can use Control Solution to check if the strips are reading correctly. The solution is usually used to see if the tester is reading accurately but it could also tell you if the test are good. You will have to read the directions but the solution usually reads around 100 when used in place of blood on the strip.

Usually Not. Some Say They Do But I Have Tried Outdated Strips Then Tried New Ones And They Were Not Even Close Numbers Wise. One Touch Is A Very Good Meter But Use New Strips Expired Ones Will Give You False Readings.

No, they will not give you an accurate reading. My testing machine will not even accept the test strips if they are outdated.

No they will not...Do not use test strips beyond the expiration or discard date, whichever comes first, because they may cause inaccurate results
