Certain Abbott Diabetes Care Continuous Glucose Monitor sensors may provide incorrect low glucose readings
The problems have been reported with roughly 3 million FreeStyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensors.
I do not have any information about alerts from non-USA governmental sources. Please check with your governmental source and do not ask me. I do not know. I live in the US. The FDA only instructs US citizens.
The FDA has however stated that issues have happened "worldwide." They have not supplied the names of any other countries, so please do not ask me. I do not know.
The FDA site has instructions on how to determine if your model is affected. I do not have any further information about whether your model might be affected.
"As of November 14, 2025, Abbott has reported 736 serious injuries, and seven deaths associated with this issue." This is all the information I have about the effects of this.
This information is current as of December 2, 2025. I will not be updating it with further information.
Do not be an asshole on this post. I am tired of people being assholes on posts where I pass on health recall information. I am only passing on what I know and am not responsible for whatever your pet peeve is about Tumblr, US-centrism, the FDA, medical devices, or the price of kumquats in Chattanooga.
Thank you.
