Welcome to flash glucose monitoring!

With the FreeStyle Libre 2 system, which measures glucose levels in people aged 4 years and older with diabetes, you can conveniently check your glucose with a painless,1† one-second scan of the FreeStyle Libre 2 sensor using your phone‡ instead of routine finger pricks.§ Access real-time glucose information and use optional glucose alarms to get notified the minute your glucose is too high or too low.

You get more glucose insights from each scan and better control2-4 of your diabetes management!

Register for MyFreeStyle GETTING STARTED today* and you can request a FREE FreeStyle Libre 2 sensor (trial kit) to be shipped to your home before the event!

†Data collected from the FreeStyle Libre system. FreeStyle Libre 2 has the same features as the FreeStyle Libre system, with the addition of optional real-time glucose alarms. Study data is applicable to both products.

‡The FreeStyle Libre 2 app and the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader have similar but not identical features.

The FreeStyle Libre 2 app is only compatible with certain mobile devices and operating systems. Please check the website for more information about device compatibility before using the app. Use of FreeStyle Libre 2 requires registration with LibreView.
