How to use this product
Always use the Dexcom ONE Starter Kit exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you. Before applying the sensor, wash your hands and ensure the skin is clean and prepped. Then, with the sensor attached to the transmitter, press it against the skin and remove and press the orange seal. Remove the transmitter and the sensor should be secured to the skin.
What is the Dexcom ONE Transmitter?
The Dexcom ONE Transmitter fits into the sensor and sends real-time glucose readings to your smartphone via bluetooth. Each transmitter features a 3 month battery life and can be reused across multiple sensors.
What is the Dexcom ONE Sensor?
The Dexcom ONE sensor continuously measures your glucose levels just beneath the skin, so you don’t have to worry about regular testing. Each sensor comes with an auto-applicator, making insertion quick and simple. Each sensor can be worn for up to 10 days.
What is continuous glucose monitoring?
Continuous glucose monitoring is exactly what it sounds like - it’s a way to continuously monitor your sugar levels, throughout the day and the night, so you can see your readings at times when you wouldn’t normally monitor, like when you’re sleeping.
You’ll wear the small, water-resistant monitor just under your skin for 10 days at a time, and with Dexcom ONE, you’re able to access your readings from your smartphone. The transmitter will alert you to any changes in your blood sugar levels, or inform you of a loss of signal between your sensor and the reader, so you can act quickly.
A continuous glucose monitoring device is suitable if you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

Please note that the manufacturer is unable to replace sensors that have been purchased for use on animals; this is because they are not licensed for this use.
