1. A multi-use lancet device comprising:
- (a) a lancet receiving assembly;
(b) at least two lancets at least partially disposed in said lancet receiving assembly and structured to be independently moveable between a cocked and a fired orientation; and
(c) a firing assembly structured to selectively and independently engage at least a plurality of said lancets so as to selectively move at least an active one of said lancets between said cocked and said fired orientations wherein said firing assembly is laterally offset from the active one of said lancets.

Abstract
A multi-use lancet device having a lancet receiving assembly containing at least two lancets disposed therein and structured to be independently moveable between a cocked and a fired orientation, and a firing assembly movably and operatively coupled with the lancet receiving assembly so as to be selectively and independently positioned in operative engagement with each of the lancets in order to define an active one of the lancets. The firing assembly is also structured to selectively move at least the active lancet between its cocked and its fired orientations.
