Product

ACCU-CHECK FastClix Lancing Device. It is intended for use in conjunction with a blood glucose monitoring system.

Reason for recall

Internal Roche inspections have revealed that after the lancet is used for a finger stick, the needle may not fully retract back within the lancet drum or back into the cap. This allows the needle to protrude inside the cap or outside of the cap of the ACCU-CHEK FastClix lancing device.
