Users of the Dexcom G5 Mobile Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (Dexcom G5) can now rely on the device to make diabetes treatment decisions using two finger pricks daily, not multiple ones, following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of expanded use of the device.

On Tuesday, the FDA granted the expanded indication. Users must still calibrate the device at least two times a day by testing a fingertip blood sample with a blood glucose meter.
