Key Features & Benefits
- Complete Prep & Test Solution: Everything you need in one bundle to safely sanitize the skin and perform a reliable blood draw.
- Consistent 28G Performance: The ideal "sweet spot" thickness for users who need a more dependable blood sample than ultra-thin needles can provide.
- Universal Lancet Fit: Compatible with most standard twist-top lancing devices, allowing you to stay with the system you trust.
- Optimal Pad Saturation: Prep pads are saturated with 70% v/v Isopropyl Alcohol for maximum efficacy as a first-aid antiseptic.
- Premium 2-Ply Pads: Soft, non-woven gauze pads (1.2 x 2.6 inches) provide excellent coverage and resist tearing during use.
- 100% Latex-Free: Neither the lancets nor the alcohol pads are made with natural rubber latex, ensuring safety for those with sensitivities.
Important Safety Information & Directions
- Testing Directions: Open an alcohol pad packet and cleanse the intended puncture site. Allow the skin to dry completely. Load the lancet into your device, twist the circular plastic cap until it snaps off to reveal the sterile needle, and perform your test.
- Single Use Only: To prevent infection and reduce pain, never reuse a lancet or an alcohol pad. Discard both immediately after a single use.
- Safe Disposal: For safer disposal, push the used lancet needle tip into the side of the plastic safety cap before discarding in a puncture-resistant sharps container.
- Alcohol Pad Warnings: For external use only. Flammable; keep away from fire or flame. Do not use in the eyes or on irritated skin.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature 59°–86°F (15°–30°C).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why is 28 Gauge the standard for many users?
While 30G or 33G lancets are thinner, they often don't produce enough blood for a successful test on the first try. 28G is the "sweet spot" that ensures a solid sample while remaining comfortable thanks to the tri-bevel grind.
Will these lancets fit my brand-name lancing device?
If your device uses a standard "twist-top" or square-base lancet, these will fit. They are compatible with the vast majority of lancing systems sold in pharmacies today (excludes proprietary systems like Accu-Chek).
Are the alcohol pads individually wrapped?
Yes, each medium McKesson Alcohol Prep Pad is individually sealed in an airtight foil pouch to maintain 100% sterility and prevent drying out before use.
Can I use the alcohol pads to clean general wounds?
These pads are specifically designed for the preparation of skin prior to an injection or lancing. While they act as a first-aid antiseptic, you should not apply them to irritated skin. Stop use and consult a physician if pain or swelling occurs.
