Diabetes never sleeps but now you can with the Dexcom G6 System.
Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) allows you to make treatment decisions with ZERO fingerpricks* or scanning required.
The device provides you with real-time glucose readings right on your compatible phone, Apple/Garmin watch or optional Receiver** and can also alert you when your levels are too high or drop too low.
Dexcom G6 has an Urgent Low Soon feature, which warns you of an upcoming low glucose event within 20 minutes, so you can take action before you're low.
*If your glucose alerts and readings from the G6 do not match symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions. **Smart device and Receiver not included with Dexcom G6 CGM System. For a list of compatible devices, please visit dexcom.com/compatibility.
Dexcom G6 is subsidised for Type 1 Diabetes
The Australian Government offers access to subsidised CGM for Australians living with type 1 diabetes through the National Diabetes Services Scheme (NDSS) Initiative.†
Alternatively, for those that are not eligible for this subsidy, you can purchase Dexcom G6 right on our online shop or trial for only $32.10.

“My Dexcom CGM has become an essential part of my life as someone living with Type 1 Diabetes. I have such a busy lifestyle, but with the functionality of Dexcom, I’m able to check my glucose numbers within seconds, and then inject and crack on with my day and whatever follows.”
- Christian, Professional F3 Racing Driver
“One of the hardest parts about being diagnosed at such a young age, in a time where diabetes tech was not so advanced, was having to do fingerpricks* all the time … Now that I have Dexcom G6, I feel so much more empowered to make those diabetes decisions because I have the data to back me up.”
- Emily, T1D Wellbeing blogger and advocate
“The other helpful thing that I like is the feeling of security when playing sport - a quick check of my Dexcom G6 app# gives me a good idea where my glucose levels are at that moment. This eases my nerves and anxiety levels which can be overwhelming.”
- Tim, Diagnosed with diabetes in 1964
