It is strongly advised always to discard a test strip after every use. | Q. Can a lancet be reused? No. Lancets are for single use only. It is strongly advised always to discard a lancet after every use. Use a new sterile lancet every time you test to help avoid infection and improve comfort and performance. | Q.

The test strips in glucometers contain an enzyme glucose oxidase, which reacts with glucose in the blood and sends the result as an electronic signal displayed on the monitor.
