WARNING
Do not use the Dexcom G4 PLATINUM System for
treatment decisions, such as how much insulin you
should take. The Dexcom G4 PLATINUM System does
not replace a blood glucose meter. Always use the
values from your blood glucose meter for treatment
decisions. Blood glucose values may differ from sensor
glucose readings. Using the sensor glucose readings
for treatment decisions could lead to low or high blood
glucose value.
