Dexcom G6 CGM Trend Graph

Representative in-clinic session data shows how calibrations can result in improved, worsening, or no effects on the accuracy of the Dexcom G6 CGM System. It supports the notion that overall, the absence of calibrations does not impact the ability of Dexcom G6 to provide accurate glucose readings.5

 

Calibration

Patients show sustained glycemic benefit with long-term real-time CGM (rtCGM) use.#,6 Dexcom rtCGM use is clinically proven to lower A1C, reduce hyper- and hypoglycemia, and increase time in range.2,3

 

COMISAIR chart

The Dexcom G6 sensor prevents clinically significant interference from acetaminophen, and readings can be used to make diabetes treatment decisions when taking up to a maximum acetaminophen dose of 1,000 mg every 6 hours.*

*Taking a higher does than 1,000 mg every 6 hours may affect Dexcom G6 readings.
