- Agree to comply with study requirements, including the performance of at least 4 fingerstick glucose checks a day using a home glucose monitor
- Comprehend written English
- Female participants must not intend to become pregnant during the next 6 months
- Plan to remain in the area of the clinical center during the next 6 months
