Testing your blood glucose (BG)

4. Adjust the depth setting

Twist the lancing device
cap until the desired
setting appears. Smaller
numbers are for shallower
punctures, which may be
less painful.

Shallower punctures work
for children and most
adults. Deeper punctures
work well for people with
thick or callused skin.
