What are Microlet lancets used for?
Microlet lancets are sterile, single-use lancet needles used to perform fingersticks for blood glucose monitoring. By creating a quick, controlled puncture in the skin, they provide a small drop of blood that can be applied to a test strip and read by a glucose meter. They are most commonly used by people with diabetes who need to check their blood sugar levels multiple times per day to manage insulin, diet, and overall health. In addition to everyday self-monitoring, Microlet lancets may also be used during routine checkups or by caregivers who assist patients with testing. Their silicone-coated tips are designed to make this process more comfortable and less painful, which is especially important for individuals who test frequently.
What gauge are Microlet lancets?
Microlet lancets are 28 gauge (0.36 mm). This size offers the right balance of comfort and effectiveness, helping to minimize pain while still providing an adequate blood sample for accurate testing.
Why are Microlet lancets different colors?
Microlet lancets are designed in bright, assorted colors to make daily testing less monotonous and more user-friendly. The color variety not only adds a bit of personalization to your routine but also serves a practical purpose: it helps users remember to change lancets regularly. By rotating through different colors, it becomes easier to keep track of whether a lancet has been used, reducing the risk of accidental reuse and supporting better hygiene and safety in blood glucose monitoring.
