Why Dexcom Devices Are Facing Scrutiny

Medical devices are strictly regulated because the risks of failure are so high. Reports of defects in glucose monitors, including inaccurate readings, adhesive issues, and premature sensor failure, have triggered recalls and FDA warnings in the past.

 

For Dexcom G7 users, potential problems can include:

  • False or inaccurate blood glucose readings that may lead to improper insulin dosing.
  • Adhesive failures that cause the sensor to detach prematurely.
  • Connectivity issues between the sensor and mobile app or reader device.
  • Alarm failures that prevent patients from being warned of dangerous glucose levels.

When these failures occur, users may face hospitalization, long-term complications, or worse.

 

How a Recall Impacts Your Legal Rights

If a device is officially recalled by the FDA or the manufacturer, patients have a clearer path to proving the product was defective. But even if your Dexcom G7 has not yet been recalled, you may still have grounds for a lawsuit.

Legal claims may fall under:

  • Product liability – holding manufacturers accountable for defective design or manufacturing.
  • Failure to warn – if Dexcom failed to provide adequate instructions or warnings about known risks.
  • Negligence – if the company did not take proper precautions to ensure product safety.

     

Are You Eligible for a Dexcom Recall Lawsuit?

You may be eligible if you:

  • Experienced serious health complications due to inaccurate or failed Dexcom G7 readings.
  • Required emergency medical treatment or hospitalization tied to device failure.
  • Suffered financial losses, such as medical bills or missed work, due to a malfunction.
  • Were not properly warned about known risks of the device.
     

If you’re unsure, consulting with an experienced attorney can help determine your eligibility.

 

What Compensation Could Cover

A lawsuit against Dexcom may allow you to recover damages for:

  • Medical expenses (emergency treatment, hospitalization, long-term care)
  • Lost wages or reduced earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering caused by the defective device
  • Emotional distress from living with a dangerous medical failure
  • Wrongful death damages for families who lost a loved one

     

What to Do if You’ve Been Affected

If you believe your Dexcom G7 malfunctioned:

  1. Seek medical attention immediately if your health is at risk.
  2. Document everything, including device failures, medical records, and financial costs.
  3. Check recall notices from the FDA or Dexcom to see if your device batch was affected.
  4. Contact Morgan & Morgan to discuss whether you qualify for a Dexcom recall lawsuit.
