well, you will know.I try to avoid any infection, however small.
I paid them and they were very cheap and changing them is 5 seconds.Maybe change it for a puncture (I did it at the beginning) is excessive, but endure it years ...
In fact, my brother your doctor puts the tetanus vaccine because it reuses lancetas and needles many days (it's yours)
There each one.

Reuse vaccine needles is something else.But a lancet that you have in the puncture only you, and that is a tiny needle, I think it is different.I think.Personal opinion.

No, man, no.
Do not reuse vaccine needles.Reuse lancetas and its own insulin needles for several times.
The doctor puts the tetanus vaccine because when reusing needles/lancets they can oxidize and produce infection.

good afternoon,

I am currently using Acu Chek Fastclix to prick and measure my glucose, in Argentina they do not give all the continuous Freestyle meter.

I wanted to know if it is really necessary to discard the lancet in each use.

I know that this is the most recommended, but when we are short of resources and if the correct asepsis is used, perhaps they could be reused.

I read your opinions, thank you very much!

In Spain they do not give the freestyle to everyone.

I lasted for months, nor remembered changing them, and without problem.

It is a lot of work everything.:(

And before I did not change the alley of the bolis, but they told me that they could remain metallic remains in the body and already tried to change them more often.I think that with the lancetas there is no danger.

I change the needles of the feathers only when they hurt me.The slow one lasts an entire pen, because I get a lot.The quick needle, as I say, change if it hurts or if insulin is precipitated inside and Atora.I know I shouldn't do so, but in 30 years anything has never happened to me.

I have used a needle for a long time, they give me a few needles to change them often.In the hospital, the nurse specialized in diabetes told me that you have to change the needle in each puncture, but I do not think there are many diabetics to do it, gone to the expense it supposes.I sulked a lot of insulin, so they are not a barbarity of punctures.

I didn't know you have to buy the glucometers 0O,Here they give them free.
And the lancetas ... it gives me a lot of laziness, but the change when it already hurts, but it is for vags, since here they enter social security.

In the diabetes two do not give them free. I was because my head doctor gave it to me and prescribed my strips, but I know no.

They do not give me glucometer or strips and when half I asked for strips they were shocked and my header told me that I do not speak

And where?There are differences between communities, but I did not know that there are communities that do not give these two things ...

I changed my doctor because my neighborhood grew and the same said that not even speaking.I asked the one who had a lifetime and gave me the glucometer and prescribed my strips

As far as I know, if the Department of Health of the Autonomous Government determines that diabetic patients are provided glycometers and strips, no doctor can refuse recipe book.It is not a medication that is convenient for some patients and for others, and it is at the criteria of the doctor whether to prescribe it or not.

If a doctor refuses to prescribe the glucometer and the lancets to a diabetic patient, in a community in which health has arranged to cover that expense, it must be denounced in the first place to the ambulatory direction, if they did nothing about it, thanI doubt it, it would be necessary to denounce it to the Department of Health of the Community.

Ah, that's another topic!If type II diabetes patients are not given, it is another issue.Although I personally believe that all diabetics should be able to control glucose, whether they are.

Hello
This is for those who may interest you, for not using since I have put the sensor I have two akku-chek brand meters, Aviva Expert model (the one that calculates the bolus), new without brand new, as well as 8 boxes ofReactive strips, I have the Fast click punctures but I have no lancet.
Who is interested can contact me privately and be able to see the way of sending them.
Greetings for all

I usually change every nine or ten punctures.

The last time I bought 200 lancet for € 9 at Amazon, so I don't cut much with the subject either.The strips are another song.I no longer find them for less than € 35 anywhere.

PD: Lancetas sent from Abbott, with what bolis can be used?It is that I have never sent any ball, but lancetas do send every two or less shipments.

The strips 20 euros 50. in the Valencian Community.If they are financed they do not reach two euros

Don't give them.Another thing is that your doctor or pharmacist gives you a glucometer.They must have them for free.The normal thing is that those of the II do not give it
