Turn the rotatable cap to select from 11 settings. Start with 2, and adjust depending on your skin type. That is why sometimes, even the littlest changes can bring the biggest improvements for managing your diabetes. When you test your blood sugar you are “supposed” to change your lancet each and every single time, so up to 15 times a day. (I say supposed to because those with diabetes know that this doesn’t always happen as regular as it should).

Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication. Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number).What I like about this is the lancets are covered within the drum, and you don’t have to worry about accidentally stabbing yourself in the finger.

What you do instead is slide the slider over to change to the next lancet in the drum. So if you test 12 times a day as an example, guess what, you only have to change it two times versus twelve. If you have type 2 diabetes and only have to test 2 to 4 times a day, well look there, you may only have to change it every day or every other day.
