FreeStyle Libre Sensors & Diabetes Care Products

How does the FreeStyle Libre system work?

The FreeStyle Libre system consists of a sensor and a reader.

Apply the sensor to the back of your upper arm where it can be held in place with an adhesive pad for up to 14 days.

To get your reading, pass the reader or a smartphone with the FreeStyle LibreLink app over the sensor for a quick, painless 1-second reading.

Data from the last 8 hours will be sent to the app or to your reader so you can keep an eye on patterns in your blood glucose levels and use the data to form a plan with your health care team.

After 14 days, simply replace the sensor with a new one to carry on using the system, it’s as easy as that!
