The FreeStyle Libre system is designed to replace blood glucose
testing in the self-management of diabetes with the exceptions
listed below. Under the following circumstances, use a blood
glucose meter to check the current glucose readings from the
FreeStyle Libre flash glucose monitoring system sensor:
•
During times of rapidly changing glucose levels, interstitial glucose levels as
measured by the sensor and reported as current may not accurately reflect
blood glucose levels. When glucose levels are falling rapidly, glucose readings
from the sensor may be higher than blood glucose levels. Conversely when
glucose levels are rising rapidly, glucose readings from the sensor may be
lower than blood glucose levels.
•
In order to confirm hypoglycaemia or impending hypoglycaemia as reported
by the sensor.
•
If symptoms do not match the FreeStyle Libre flash glucose monitoring system
reading. Do not ignore symptoms that may be due to low blood glucose or
high blood glucose.
