More often if...: If you have a close monitoring from your doctor, you have a good control of your daily carbs, your glucose levels meet all the criteria and you are sure that glucose is not getting too high with meals; then once a day is ok. However, if those requirements are not fulfilled, it is advisable to measure glucose before main meals and two hours after, to be sure glucose is not getting too high.
