I am having a hard time with sensor insertion and overpatch application on the back of the arm. Does Dexcom have any recommendations?

Ask a friend, family member, or healthcare provider to help insert your first Dexcom G7 sensor and overpatch.
Insertion tips :
  • Look in a mirror while positioning the applicator or applying your overpatch.
  • Try reaching under and over your arm to find out which is more comfortable.
  • Press and hold applicator firmly against skin until clear safety guard is pushed in. Then push button on side of applicator.
  • Ask your healthcare provider for more tips.
