Hi, Jan
I have seen lancets for sale online that say they're a universal fit but I've only ever bought the ones specifically for my device. However, a box of 200 for my device always includes a lancing device (I have three now) so if that's normal you would always get a device that's for the lancets you've bought.

Enjoy the book.

Martin
Thank you v much Martin
 
I've had a couple of lancing devices break..... I do a lot of testing.... and I've just checked my unopened box of lancets and very pleased to see that it contains a new device, so this may be standard practice to supply a new device with a box of 200 lancets. That said, I have interchanged lancets into different devices on the odd (once in a blue moon) occasion that I have changed lancets.... (this naughty girl doesn't follow best practice and change lancet nearly as often as recommended) and have found them interchangeable between brands so far.
