What kind of lancets will fit in this lancing device? Is there any specific type of lancets I need to buy? I have one touch ultra 2 glucometer. Thanks

Regular lancets and micro lancets will fit this device. They are widely available.

I haven't used this with onetouch. Even so, this should work. I've used this with a variety of lancets and all have fit.

No, just lancets. However, if you look around Amazon, some vendors sell a kit (sort of). Some companies sell the One Touch meter, the One Touch Delica devise, a few lancets and maybe 10 test strips. That's how I started with OneTouch. I got everything I needed to get started really inexpensively. Look around Amazon. You may find a good deal also.

I'm sorry that I do not know the names of the lancets. I consider the lancets to be either "plain" or "specific to a certain device." This one uses the plain lancets. I THINK the Softclix ones are also "plain."

These are NOT testing strips. They are lancets and work with most lancing devices. Stop in at your local pharmacy and ask them if the lancets will work with your lancing device. Testing strips will likely work only with one manufacture's meters, and perhaps only with some of their meters.

I've had this same qustion and just called Bayer's Customer Support line to specifically ask what size gauge the Microlet2 lancing devices were and was told they are 28 gauge. They seem smaller to me. Target carries smaller gauges that will fit the Microlet2 lancing device (smaller price, too!).

I CHECK my blood with a human glucometer. I also check my dog's blood with a dog monitor. All I can tell you is that I need much less blood for testing the dog. I need much more for testing me. But I still have trouble in testing the dog, since I don't always get blood with a single puncture. May have to try a few times.

I find that you can't. I believe this is a poor design. I got one of my old lancets that I manually load and kept using that. It also turned out to be cheaper. Hope that helped.

I called to costumers services; and the lady said that I have to buy first in order to see the expirations day. Also I want to know if I can use it with the oneTouch Ultra mini glucometer?

You get the "Contour next EZ", a cheap case, a Microlet2 and about 10 lancets. Probably included a few test strips, but, I don't remember. At any rate you should but additional test strips. These are "Contour Next" strips. I think the device is a little more accurate than my previous one. The strips are also slightly more expensive. Good Luck

It comes with the glucometer, case and log book. No lancing device and sample lancets.

Lancets are to prick your finger for blood. If you are newly diagnosed with diabetes, check with your local hospital on diabetes education classes.

I'm using ReliOn 33g ultra-thin lancets. The stick isn't bad and the price point is good.

My kit came with the soft clix lancet. It appears this supplier is rather loosey-goosey with what they stock and ship. Accu-check hasn't packaged the meter with the soft-clix in 3 generations of product, so I got some old stock. If you are dead set on getting the Fast clix don't buy this one. Go to your local pharmacy.

Lancets are generally a single use product. It comes with additional lancets, and when you run out, just go get some more. They are very inexpensive. Just a caveat, many people have written that some of the strips are defective and show an error message. I have found that pulling them out gently and re-inserting it until you see the indicator will fix this problem. It is not the strips that are defective, but the strips' electrical component needs to make contact with the sensor within the machine. That said, be sure to monitor your ketone level at the same time, preferably before breakfast. Goal is to be consistently above 0.5 to be in nutritional ketosis. Don't give up on the diet, it really does work. It took me 4 weeks to become keto adapted, and I found out the culprit was too much cheese and nuts.

I think any lancet can be used. The point of using a lancet is to prick yourself for a blood sample. Walgreen also carries travel lancets, one time use and throw away. It's for testing on the go. Makes life easier. But any lancet you decide on will work. I often use my lifestyle because it less painful. Hope this helps
