AccuChek Aviva Plus review

The ACCU CHEK Aviva Plus Blood Glucose Meter is the most accurate and least painful device to check the blood sugar level for users. The amazing fascinating aspect of the Aviva Plus is that this is first meter/lancet/test strip combo to receive an “Ease of Use” award from the Arthritis Foundation. Other individual meters, etc., have received this award, but not for the entire package of items you will need to test your blood.

The Aviva Plus used to be the Aviva. According to a telephone call with Roche customer service, The meter has remained the same(although they put the new name on it), but the meter now uses Aviva Plus Test Strips rather than the old Aviva test strips. The entire system is now referred to as the Aviva Plus System. However, you will note from the picture that they still bill the meter as the “Aviva”.
