Stelo Non-Prescription CGM by Dexcom
Dexcom has now launched a new CGM product that should be available later this year called the Stelo.
What’s different about the Stelo is its design for Type 2 diabetes patients who don’t need insulin. Type 2 diabetes accounts for 90% or more of diabetes cases, yet these people don’t always have a clear idea of which foods spike their blood sugar and what to do about it.
To start, Dexcom will offer it as a cash-pay product. Sayer didn’t name a specific amount but said the company would “be competitive” when asked about a competitor’s cash price of $800 to $900 per year.
Ultimately, he hopes to gain insurance coverage for the device, but it’s not clear how the price will compare to traditional CGMs.

Vivoo
Vivoo is a home testing tool that uses urine to diagnose nine important health-related data points. The company calls it a wellness platform that gives real-time data on water, magnesium, calcium, vitamin C, PH, keytones, sodium, oxidative stress and protein. A one-time purchase, which includes four Vivoo tests, is $39. They also offer monthly subscriptions for people who want or need to test more often to monitor these data points regularly.
