prior to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
WARNING:
• The FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System contains
small parts that may be dangerous if swallowed.
• During times of rapidly changing glucose (more than 0.1 mmol/L
per minute), interstitial uid glucose levels as measured by the
FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System Sensor may not
accurately reect blood glucose levels. Under these circumstances,
check the Sensor glucose readings by conducting a ngerstick test
using a blood glucose meter.

as reported by the FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring
System Sensor, conduct a ngerstick test using a blood glucose
meter.
• Do not ignore symptoms that may be due to low or high blood
glucose. If you have symptoms that do not match the FreeStyle
Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System reading or suspect that
your reading may be inaccurate, check the reading by conducting
a ngerstick test using a blood glucose meter. If you are
experiencing symptoms that are not consistent with your glucose
readings, consult your health care professional.
