Abbott has launched the FreeStyle LibreLink mobile app for people using its FreeStyle Libre system in India. The app allows users to monitor their glucose levels and view their data directly on their smartphone. The app also allows users to share their information with healthcare professionals through LibreView and with caregivers through a separate LibreLinkUp app.
The app is available for compatible iPhone and Android smartphones across India. The integrated FreeStyle Libre digital platform aims to empower people to better manage their diabetes through easy monitoring, insights, and connection. Finger pricks are required if glucose readings do not match symptoms or expectations. Abbott is committed to ensuring that the FreeStyle Libre technology simplifies daily routines and empowers people to manage their diabetes more effectively.
Kalyan Sattaru, general manager of Abbott’s Diabetes Care Business in South Asia, stated that the FreeStyle LibreLink app seamlessly integrates with the FreeStyle Libre sensor, the world’s No.1 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) used by more than 5 million people with diabetes globally. Adding, Dr. Manoj Chawla, Senior Diabetologist said,”The ability to automatically receive glucose information on real-time basis can facilitate easier diabetes management for people with diabetes and their caregivers.”
