A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) makes it convenient for you to track your glucose and learn how it relates to your body’s unique response to food, drink, exercise and sleep. CGM technology can help people living with diabetes by monitoring their glucose levels without fingersticks¹

Abbott makes FreeStyle Libre CGM systems.

Our CGMs consist of a biosensor that automatically streams your glucose data to a smartphone app³ Unlike traditional testing that gives you a single reading, these systems continuously measure glucose levels in the cellular fluid just under your skin, not from your blood.

¹Fingersticks are required if your glucose alarms and readings do not match symptoms or when you see Check Blood Glucose symbol during the first 12 hours.

²Lingo is not intended for diagnosis or management of diseases.

³The FreeStyle Libre systems apps are only compatible with certain mobile devices and operating systems. Please check the Support section of freestyle.abbott for more information about device compatibility before using the apps. Use of the FreeStyle Libre systems apps may require registration with LibreView.

Beyond diabetes management, people who want to learn more about their health and wellness can use CGM technology, as well. Abbott's Lingo consumer biowearable¹ lets you see your glucose data and apply the learnings to build healthy habits.

Diabetes is a chronic health condition that affects your body’s ability to produce insulin and turn the glucose from what you eat and drink into energy.

Abbott helps people with diabetes live fuller, healthier lives through innovative continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems and other support. Our FreeStyle Libre systems eliminate routine fingersticks¹ from diabetes management for millions around the world. In addition, Libre technology integrates with a wide range of compatible insulin pumps.

Abbott also makes nutritional products specifically formulated for people living with diabetes, such as our Glucerna shakes, which contain low-glycemic carbohydrates to help with your glucose response.

It also offers real-time alerts⁴ when glucose levels go too high or too low. You also have the option to share⁵ insights with your healthcare team to adjust your diabetes management plan.
