KIT
WIPED CLEAN
If you want to be sure that you have clean fingers for a blood
test, then look no further than DiaWipes. Available in handy little
packets, these do the necessary job of keeping your fingers clean
so as not to get a false test result when the chance to handwash is
unavailable. The packs are small (10.5cm x 6.5cm) and each wipe
is 7cm x 4.5cm, enough to give any one's soon-to-be-lanced digits
and jolly good wipe. One pack of DiaWipes is £1.25, five packs is
£5.75 and a box of 50 packs is £45. Also available on prescription
from Funky Pumpers (where they remain a best seller).
