Why does the FreeStyle Libre system not have any alarms?

The FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System is designed to replace routine blood glucose monitoring.*1 The system represents one of the products in a new category of flash glucose monitoring, which is a type of continuous glucose monitoring system. It is different traditional continuous glucose monitoring systems which typically have alarms. This system may provide a good alternative for patients that are bothered by alarms or suffer from ‘alarm fatigue’ but still want real time glucose information.

*Finger pricks are required if glucose readings do not match symptoms or expectations.1
