5. Continue to hold the lancing device and gradually
increase pressure for several seconds.
6. While holding the lancing device on your test site,
look through the clear cap until a round drop of blood
appears
(approximately 0.5ul).
7. Lift the lancing device straight up; be careful not to
smear the blood on your testing site.
8. Place the edge of the test strip to the drop of blood. The
blood will be automatically drawn up.
REMEMBER
1. Consult with your Healthcare Professional before using alternative site testing.
2. Choose a different puncture site each time you test. Repeated punctures in the same spot may
cause soreness and calluses.
3. If bruising occurs at an alternative site or you have difficulty getting a sample, consider sam-
pling from a fingertip instead. You may want to review the choice of sites with your Healthcare
Professional.
4. Do not share your reusable lancing device with anyone including other family members.
CAUTION
Do not test on your upper arm, forearm, dorsal hand, ventral palm, thigh, or calf when:
1. You think your blood glucose is rapidly falling. For example within two hours of exercise, rap-
id-action insulin injection, or an insulin pump bolus.
2. Testing with a fingertip sample may identify hypoglycemia or an insulin reaction sooner than
testing with a forearm or palm sample.
