Dexcom G6 is the first real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rt-CGM) system that is authorised to be interoperable with an insulin delivery product. It features a 10-day sensor and requires zero fingersticks* or scanning, supporting greater freedom and flexibility for your patients ages 2 years and older to manage their diabetes.
*If your glucose alerts and readings from Dexcom G6 do not match symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions.

Why prescribe Dexcom G6?
Dexcom G6 can help empower your patients with proven accuracy1 and a suite of protective alerts, including a predictive “Urgent Low Soon” alert and can help simplify the way you treat your patients—in-person or via remote clinic appointments—to maximize their care.
Zero fingersticks* or scanning
Exceptional accuracy1 for diabetes management, with no fingersticks* or scanning required.
*If your glucose alerts and readings from Dexcom G6 do not match symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions.
Customisable alert schedules
Customisable high and low glucose alerts offer your patients the ability to set alert schedules and repeat alert functionality for discretion and flexibility.
Continuous Share‡
Up to 10 family and friends can receive glucose readings and alerts.‡ Widening the support network, this feature can support greater peace of mind, particularly in parents and caregivers.
Exceptional Accuracy 1
Across all glucose ranges and no calibration is required.
Interoperability
Dexcom G6 can power certain Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems.
Urgent Low Soon Alert
The “Urgent Low Soon” Alert can warn patients in advance of a potential severe hypoglycaemic event (≤ 55 mg/DL) within 20 minutes and is associated with reduced hypoglycaemia, without a corresponding increase in hyperglycaemia.2
Dexcom G6 Components
Using the auto-applicator, patients or caregivers can insert the sensor and then snap in the transmitter. Then, they will be able to view glucose data from the transmitter via a patient’s selected display device.
Autoaplicador
Simplifica o processo de aplicação do sensor, bastando premir um botão.
Sensor
Monitoriza os níveis de glicose intersticiais através de um pequeno cabo introduzido mesmo por baixo da pele, que envia um sinal para o transmissor.
Transmissor
Fixado na parte superior do sensor; envia dados sem fios para o dispositivo de visualização de um doente.
Dispositivo de visualização
Mostra as leituras de glicose e os dados de tendências no ecrã tátil do recetor ou no dispositivo inteligente compatível do doente. †
