The Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System is a diabetes management tool for patients ages 2 and up.
Powerful. Proven. Protective.
Dexcom G6 measures glucose levels up to every five minutes using a sensor inserted just underneath the skin, and wirelessly transmits glucose readings to a receiver or compatible smart device.*
Dexcom G6 can help empower your patients with proven accuracy1 and a suite of protective alerts, including the new Urgent Low Soon alert. Whether your patients are living with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, Dexcom G6 can help you simplify treatment and maximize their care.
Exceptional accuracy1 for diabetes management, with no routine fingersticks† or scanning required.
Each slim, water-resistant sensor‡ can be worn for up to 10 days.
Customizable high and low glucose alerts, and an Urgent Low Soon alert that can proactively warn users if they will be ≤ 3.1 mmol/L within 20 minutes.
A simple, one-button auto-applicator to insert the sensor just beneath the skin.
Patients can share their glucose data with up to 10 followers§
† If your glucose alerts and readings from the G6 do not match symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions
‡ The Dexcom G6 Sensor and Transmitter are water-resistant and may be submerged under eight feet of water for up to 24 hours without failure when properly installed
§ Requires the Follow App and an internet connection. Followers should always confirm readings on the Dexcom G6 CGM App or Receiver before making diabetes treatment decisions
