    Associated with reduced cardiovascular risk in as little as 3 months‡,§,2

    Why CGM for adults with type 2 diabetes not on insulin? 

    American Diabetes Association

    ADA guidelines recommend CGM as an option for adult patients with type 2 diabetes whether they use6:

    • Insulin
    • Non-insulin injectable glucose-lowering medications
    • Oral glucose-lowering medications

  • Type 2 diabetes on insulin

    Dexcom G7 15 Day: gives your type 2 diabetes patients on insulin more time 
in range using less insulin.2

    2.4% reduction in A1C from baseline at 6 months†,3

    Why CGM?

     

    Dexcom CGM is clinically proven to lower A1C1

    Changes in A1C through 1 year

    chart showing a greater decrease in A1C % using Basal insulin treatment over time


    Study design: Real-world study of 74,679 type 2 diabetes adults, including 1375 basal insulin users and 3122 prandial insulin users. A1C values analyzed pre-index, 3, 6, and 12 months post-index, represented as mean ±SEM. Significant improvements in A1C were observed at 3 months and sustained throughout the study period (P<.0001).

    Key findings in patients with type 2 diabetes on insulin 

    Real-world study showed statistically significant A1C reduction at 3 months and sustained at 1 year§,1


     

    CGM was associated with a reduction in hospitalizations and emergency room visits1


     

    CGM decreased A1C across all therapy types (BIT and PIT) regardless of medication changes||,1

    Even for patients who meet their A1C goals (<7%), CGM provides 24-hour insights to ensure every glucose excursion can be addressed.

    Chart showing around a 13% decrease in time above range and +15% increase in time in range

     

    Study design: A 12-month, single-center, open-label randomized controlled trial comparing CGM with BGM in 76 adults with insulin-treated type 2 diabetes. Participants were randomized 1:1, with the primary outcome being change in time in range (70-180 mg/dL) from baseline to 12 months, measured by blinded CGM. Secondary outcomes included A1C, insulin dose, weight, and patient-reported outcomes (P<.05).2

    Why CGM?

     

    Dexcom G7 15 Day: Proven results in patients with type 1 diabetes12

    Compared to BGM, Dexcom CGM demonstrated significant A1C reduction12

    chart showing a lower A1C when using a CGM + pump

     

    Study design: The COMISAIR-2 study was the 3-year follow-up to the COMISAIR trial which compared the efficacy and safety of long-term regimens of sensor-augmented insulin regimen (SAIR) among individuals. This nonrandomized, prospective, real-world, clinical trial followed 94 participants with type 1 diabetes. The primary end point was the difference in A1C groups after 3 years of follow-up.12

    Dexcom CGM is simply the most accurate for your patients with type 1 diabetes.†,8,13
