Omnitest® Announcement
B. Braun Medical Ltd. has taken the decision to discontinue the Omnitest® 3 and Omnitest® 5 blood glucose meter from the UK market. This decision was taken as methods of diabetes treatment are rapidly evolving. We have observed a clear trend away from intermittent (BGM) blood glucose monitoring, such as B. Braun Omnitest®, towards continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) which allows more adherence to therapy and a better quality of life for patients.
The discontinuation will be implemented gradually with completion envisaged for the end of 2021:
- 30th September 2020: no new Omnitest® 3 or Omnitest® 5 meters will be available. Patients requiring new or replacement meters will be advised to seek an alternative provider.
- 31st December 2021: Omnitest® 3 and Omnitest® 5 test strips will be removed from Drug Tariff and will no longer be available on prescription or to purchase.
As part of this process the Omnican® Lance Soft lancets will also be removed from the Drug Tariff from the 31st December 2021.
Please note: Due to the added benefits the FORA Advance Blood Glucose and Ketone meter offers, it will remain in the company’s portfolio and available to patients along with the Omnican Fine® pen needle range.

Sterile single-use lancets
Omnican® Lance soft is a sterile, disposable lancet. It is designed to be used with a lancing device for blood glucose self-monitoring. The silicone-coated 3-facet-bevel ensures a gentle puncture with maximum comfort and ideal blood flow.
Omnican® Lance soft is available in small diameters of 0.33 mm (28G) and 0.30 mm (30G). This reduces discomfort and tissue damage which may otherwise lead to the formation of calluses at the puncture site. Larger gauge numbers indicate a smaller outer diameter. Choose the lancet size that is most suitable for your needs.
- Contains 200 lancets
Omnican® Lance soft fits in:
Omnican® Lance, Omnilance® (B. Braun), EasyTouch (Abbott), Microlet 2 (Bayer), One Touch UltraSoft (LifeScan), Glucoject Dual Plus (Menarini), Autolet Impression (Owen Mumford), MyStar (Sanofi Aventis), mylife AutoLance, mylife Softlance (Ypsomed).
