Glucose Monitoring FAQs

The Omnipod 5 System is compatible with the Dexcom G6, Dexcom G7 and FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus Sensors. 

The Omnipod 5 System can be used with or without a Sensor but to benefit from automated insulin delivery, it must be paired with a compatible Sensor. Please discuss with your healthcare provider at the next planned consultation to determine which product is right for you. 

Omnipod 5 patients considering connecting with a different sensor brand should first discuss with you. Connecting a different compatible CGM sensor brand with Omnipod 5 can be done at a Pod change via the Omnipod 5 App on the dedicated Controller. Step by step instructions will be displayed on the Controller on how to connect Omnipod 5 to a new sensor. More information, including 'How to videos' and the Omnipod 5 User guide will be available at the Omnipod 5 Knowledge Hub.
