At Law Experts, PLLC, our Dexcom G6 lawsuit attorneys are committed to helping individuals affected by defective medical devices seek justice.

What is the DexcomG6?

The Dexcom G6 is a continuous glucose monitor that consists of a small sensor placed under the skin, a transmitter that sends data to a receiver or smartphone, and an app that allows users to track their glucose levels throughout the day. The system is intended to provide real-time blood sugar data, helping diabetes patients manage their condition more effectively.

However, despite its intended benefits, the Dexcom G6 has been associated with several issues that have put users at risk, including inaccurate readings and device malfunctions that can lead to dangerous health complications.

Complications and Health Risks

While the Dexcom G6 is designed to help patients manage their diabetes, it has been linked to several serious complications that can jeopardize users’ health. Some of the most common risks and complications associated with the Dexcom G6 include:

  • Inaccurate Glucose Readings: One of the most concerning issues with the Dexcom G6 is its potential to provide inaccurate glucose readings. Inaccurate readings can lead to improper insulin dosing, which can cause dangerously low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) or high blood sugar (hyperglycemia).
  • Device Malfunctions: Some users have reported that the Dexcom G6 transmitter or sensor malfunctions, causing the device to stop sending data. This can leave patients without real-time glucose information, putting them at risk of life-threatening complications.
  • Severe Skin Reactions: Many patients have experienced severe skin reactions at the sensor site, including rashes, blistering, and infections. In some cases, these reactions require medical intervention to treat.
  • Connectivity and Battery Issues: Some users have experienced problems with the device’s connectivity and battery life, resulting in gaps in glucose monitoring and a lack of critical data.

These complications can have serious consequences for individuals who rely on the Dexcom G6 to manage their diabetes, putting them at risk of hospitalization or other long-term health issues.

Allegations Against Dexcom

The lawsuits filed against Dexcom, Inc. focus on several key allegations, including:

  • Defective Design: Plaintiffs allege that the Dexcom G6 is defectively designed and prone to malfunctions, including inaccurate readings and device failure, which puts users at risk of serious harm.
  • Failure to Warn: The lawsuits claim that Dexcom failed to adequately warn users and healthcare providers about the risks associated with the Dexcom G6, including the potential for device malfunctions, inaccurate glucose readings, and severe skin reactions.
  • Negligence: The lawsuits accuse Dexcom of negligence in the development, testing, and marketing of the G6 system, alleging that the company did not do enough to ensure the safety and reliability of the device.
  • Breach of Warranty: Many lawsuits include claims of breach of warranty, alleging that Dexcom failed to provide a product that lived up to its advertised promises of safety, reliability, and accuracy.

Who Can File a DexcomG6Lawsuit?

If you or a loved one has experienced complications related to the Dexcom G6, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit against Dexcom, Inc. Potential claimants include individuals who:

  • Suffered from inaccurate glucose readings that led to hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, or other serious health issues.
