Dexcom Sample Experience
Say hello to Dexcom Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Systems—and goodbye to fingersticks* for your insulin-using patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. The Dexcom Sample Experience is a no-cost sampling program that helps introduce healthcare professionals and their patients to the features and benefits of Dexcom CGM, while offering actionable insights that can inform your treatment decisions. Request a Dexcom sample kit to get patients started with continuous glucose monitoring.
*If your glucose alerts and readings from the Dexcom G6 or G7 CGM System do not match symptoms or expectations,
use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions.
can I only extend the Dexcom sample experience option to certain patients?

what is included

Dexcom G7

60% smaller than the Dexcom G6, the new sensor warms up in as little as 30 minutes (10-day lifespan).
Patient Instructions
The activation card provides guidance for patients to start on the Dexcom G7 including a set-up guide and instructions for use.
Dexcom G6
Auto-Applicator
Auto-applicator allows for simple sensor insertion at the push of a button.
Sensor
Sensor monitors interstitial glucose levels through a small wire inserted just underneath the skin, sending a signal to the transmitter (10-day lifespan).
Transmitter
Fastened on top of the sensor, the transmitter sends data wirelessly to the wearer’s compatible smart device† (3-month lifespan).
