NOTE:
• You may need to wait a little longer to get a large enough drop of
blood from the forearm or palm.
Do Not
squeeze the site excessively.
• If the sample drop of blood runs or spreads due to contact with hair
or with a line in your palm,
Do Not
use that sample. Try puncturing
again in a smoother area.
• Remember: You may have to adjust the lancing device to a deeper
setting to get a large enough drop of blood.
