204 Preloaded Lancets in 34 Drums for the Accu-Chek FastClix Lancing Device
Accu-Chek FastClix Lancets are designed exclusively for use with the Accu-Chek FastClix lancing device. Each drum contains 6 preloaded lancets, eliminating the need to handle individual lancets. This 204-lancet pack contains 34 drums and is designed to provide convenient, hygienic finger-prick blood sampling for individual self-monitoring.
Overview
Accu-Chek FastClix uses a distinctive drum system rather than individually loading and removing a lancet for every finger prick.
Each drum contains 6 preloaded lancets. Once a lancet has been used, the lever on the FastClix device advances the drum to the next fresh lancet. The counter window shows how many unused lancets remain.
This 204 pack contains:
- 204 individual lancets
- 34 preloaded drums
- 6 lancets per drum
- 30-gauge / 0.3mm lancets

Who Is It For
Accu-Chek FastClix Lancets are intended for people who:
- Use an Accu-Chek FastClix lancing device
- Perform blood glucose self-monitoring
- Require capillary blood samples from a fingertip
- Prefer a preloaded drum instead of handling individual lancets

Why Choose This Product
The key difference between FastClix and conventional lancet systems is the preloaded drum.
Instead of manually inserting and removing individual lancets, one FastClix drum provides six fresh lancets. Moving the lever on the compatible lancing device advances to the next lancet.
This makes the system particularly convenient for people who regularly perform finger-prick blood glucose tests.
The FastClix lancing device also offers 11 penetration-depth settings from 0.7mm to 2.2mm, allowing the depth to be adjusted according to skin type and the blood volume required.
Helpful Product Information
204 Lancets = 34 Drums
Each drum contains six lancets:
34 drums × 6 lancets = 204 lancets.
Compatibility
These lancet drums are specifically designed for the Accu-Chek FastClix lancing device.
They cannot be substituted for standard individual lancets or used in incompatible lancing devices.
Fresh Lancet for Every Test
Accu-Chek recommends using a new sterile lancet every time a blood sample is obtained. This helps reduce infection risk and maintains the intended lancing performance because a fresh needle retains its optimal sharpness and shape.
Trust & Pharmacist Advice
For blood glucose monitoring, wash and thoroughly dry your hands before obtaining a sample. Residues on the fingers can potentially affect a glucose reading.
Use a new lancet for each finger prick and rotate testing sites across the fingertips where appropriate.
If obtaining sufficient blood is difficult, do not automatically select the deepest setting. Accu-Chek recommends beginning with a low penetration setting and gradually increasing it until sufficient blood is obtained.
Never share your FastClix lancing device with another person, including family members. The device is designed for individual patient self-monitoring and does not incorporate safeguards against cross-infection between multiple users.
If your blood glucose readings are unexpectedly high, low or inconsistent with how you feel, follow your diabetes management plan and seek appropriate healthcare advice.
Not Suitable For
- Lancing devices other than Accu-Chek FastClix
- Sharing between different people
- Reusing a lancet that has already been used
- Multi-patient blood collection using the same FastClix device
- Professional multi-patient blood sampling with one FastClix device
- Use where the lancet drum or packaging is damaged
- Use contrary to the current Accu-Chek instructions
How to Use
- Wash and thoroughly dry your hands.
- Remove the cap from the Accu-Chek FastClix lancing device.
- Insert a new FastClix drum containing six lancets.
- Replace the cap.
- Select an appropriate penetration depth.
- Place the device against the fingertip.
- Press the release button to prime and lance in one action.
- Obtain the required blood sample.
- After testing, move the lever back and forth to advance to a fresh lancet for the next test.
- The counter indicates how many unused lancets remain.
- Use all six lancets before removing the drum.
- Dispose of the used drum according to applicable local requirements.
Once a used drum has been removed from the FastClix device, it cannot be reinserted because of its built-in locking mechanism.
