Pharmacists use High-Tech monitors to fight prediabetes
NCT ID NCT07529366
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a pharmacist-led program that uses continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) can help people with prediabetes better control their blood sugar and make healthier choices. About 40 adults with prediabetes will wear a CGM for 12 weeks and receive guidance from a pharmacist. Researchers will compare their blood sugar changes to a similar group from the past who did not use a CGM.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Dexcom Stelo continuous glucose monitor (CGM) device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that pharmacist-guided CGM use helps people with prediabetes lower their blood sugar and adopt healthier lifestyles.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early observational study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply widely. The CGM device is not a treatment itself, and lifestyle changes may not be sustained long-term.
