[QUOTE="kev-w, post: 1655275, member: 452484"] I change mine each time these days, there's 6 on each cartridge, the device I had before probably monthly though! Saying that when I was diagnosed in 1984 they expected you to use a syringe at least 6 times, and even later when the pen tips were first available on a script (we were expected to arrive at the hospital for a box of 500) they were a bit tight with their prescription. I'd guess as time goes by the needle will lose its edge and blunt, I'd also guess the cartridge of 6 aren't as sharp as they once were, so yes, change each time. I'm testing around 10 x a day mind.... [/QUOTE]
