Hi I won a competition on Facebook for a blood machine and the lancing device wasn't in there does anyone know what to do to get one sent out or so I have to buy one
You can buy them from your pharmacy, such as a Accu-Chek Multiclix or Fastclix.does anyone know what to do to get one sent out or so I have to buy one
Lancing devices can be used with any meter, they are universal so to speak.What sort of meter is it?
You do not have to buy a meter, you just buy the lancing device and the lancets for it.Ok thank you can you buy them separately or do I have to buy the meter to

I think I remember that, I use my Accu-Chek Multclix with both my Abbot Freedom Lite and My Accu-Chek Performa.I posted that very same information a couple of weeks ago when someone asked a similar question to this OP. I was slapped down by someone who mentioned a well known make of meter that requires a particular lancet. I can't remember the name of the meter, but accepted what was said to me because I knew no different. I should have Googled and checked. Slap my hands.
As it happens, I have used a trusty Accu Chek Fastclix lancet pen on 3 different meters with no problems. Logically, I cannot for the life of me understand why it wouldn't. All it does is prick my fingers!
No need to slap your wrists though, have a avocado instead.

Hi Blue - As I recall it, the OP in the other instance was asking about the actual disposable inner lancets, rather than the device.
The device I stated that uses a different disposable insert to any others I have found was the iBG range.
I wasn't trying to slap anyone down, just point out just another bizarre instance where one size, or in this case one design doesn't suit all. Apologies if you felt you were being scolded.
