Allow blood drop to form
Continue holding the sampler against the skin for a few
seconds until the blood drop forms. Allow enough blood to
form under the cap until you have a blood sample that is

If bruising occurs, you may choose to lance a fingertip
instead. If you are having difficulty obtaining blood from the
arm, call the InDuo™ Customer Care Line at 1 888 729-2299
for assistance. The blood sample must be at least 1 microlitre
in volume or you may get an Æ or possible inaccurate test
result. If you must massage the area to obtain more blood,
do not squeeze the site excessively.
