Place the lancet cover onto a hard, even surface (such as a
tabletop) with the open end facing up. While the lancet is still
in the lancing device, bring the lancet tip to the lancet cover
to recover the used lancet. You can then safely handle the
used lancet.
Extract the lancet from the lancet holder cup by pulling and
twisting on the plastic collar of the lancet (near the middle of
the lancet).
Replace the lancing device cap onto the lancing device until it
snaps or clicks into place.
Discard the used lancet properly.
Follow your healthcare professional’s
instructions for disposal.
