There's a safe way to do

that. When done testing just set the cover that was on the lancet on

the counter and then poke the lancet (while still in the lancet device)

back into the top again.

Hi Marelen,

That is what I did when I used the One Touch, but I cannot do it with the

Accu-Check.

Hi Eunice,

I saw the diabetic educator show different techniques for various

lancets. Not sure what Accu-Check looks like but she would just stick

the sharp into anywhere on the plastic tip. Now I could never do it

just like she did but then she had years of practice with various ones

LOL! I guess you just do whatever you can and not worry about it. I

think I remember you put yours in a container anyway so that's

probably safe enough. Have a great day!
