Overview
Medline Sterile Safety Lancets with Push-Button Activation offer a dependable option for blood sampling in both home testing and clinical settings. The spring-loaded action delivers a swift, controlled puncture, while the penetration depth (21G x 1.8 mm) is designed to be precise, supporting a consistent sampling experience.
