Holiday travel means more time on the road—and for people living with diabetes, that also means staying mindful of blood sugar changes. 💙

• real-time glucose readings
• customizable high/low alerts
• automatic data updates (no fingersticks)

• easy smartphone compatibility for checking on the go

Whether you're visiting family or heading out for a winter getaway, steady glucose means safer driving—and a more enjoyable holiday season.

At Aptiva Medical, we help you stay prepared by coordinating insurance, working with your doctor, and delivering your CGM right to your door.

💙 This holiday season, safe travel starts with steady focus and steady blood sugar.
