What is Dexcom G6 Sensor?
Dexcom G6 Sensor is a device used to monitor glucose levels continuously in patients with diabetes. It provides real-time glucose readings and sends them directly to a device such as a smartphone or Dexcom G6 receiver.
Dexcom G6 Sensor works by measuring glucose levels in your interstitial fluid—the fluid between your cells. A tiny sensor inserted under your skin does this. The sensor is connected to a transmitter which sends the data to the receiver, providing real-time glucose levels throughout the day and night.
What doses of Dexcom G6 Sensor are available?
The Dexcom G6 Sensor is a device, not a medication, so it does not come in "doses." The device provides ongoing readings of glucose levels.
What are the side effects of Dexcom G6 Sensor?
Using the Dexcom G6 Sensor may cause minor side effects such as:
Skin irritation or redness around the sensor
Rash or itching at the site of the sensor
More serious side effects might include:
Severe skin irritation
Infection at the sensor site
If you experience severe side effects, consult your healthcare provider immediately. As this may not be a complete list of precautions, you should talk to your healthcare provider about any potential concerns before using Dexcom G6 Sensor.
How long does a Dexcom G6 transmitter last?
The Dexcom G6 transmitter is designed to last for three months after its first use. Once activated, the transmitter battery cannot be recharged or replaced. To ensure continuous glucose monitoring, plan for a new transmitter every three months.
How to reset a Dexcom G6 receiver
Resetting the Dexcom G6 receiver is a straightforward process. To reset a Dexcom G6 receiver, you can follow these steps:
Start by turning off the receiver by pressing and holding the power button until a "shutting down" message appears.
Once the receiver is off, remove the transmitter; ensure your hands are clean and dry, then gently squeeze the tabs on either side of the transmitter and pull it out of the sensor housing.
Wait 30 seconds for the receiver to fully shut down and reset.
Next, reinsert the transmitter into the sensor housing; ensure it is lined up correctly and you feel a slight click when it's inserted correctly.
Turn the receiver back on by pressing and holding the power button, causing it to start searching for the transmitter.
Finally, follow the on-screen prompts to reconnect the transmitter; once reconnected, the receiver will start receiving data from the sensor.

Dexcom and Freestyle Libre are used to monitor glucose levels, but they are not exactly the same. Compare the features of each CGM to find out which one is better.
Normal blood glucose levels in adults without diabetes are less than 140 mg/dL after eating or less than 100 mg/dL after fasting. Dangerous blood sugar levels are less than 54 mg/dL or higher than 250 mg/dL.
