“The commercial availability of this new offering is a testament
to our decade-long partnership with Dexcom and shared commitment to
continued leadership in advancing AID systems,” said Mark Novara,
executive vice president and chief commercial officer of Tandem
Diabetes Care. “Now, our t:slim X2 users in Canada can have access
to a range of innovative tools that not only simplify diabetes
management but also enhance their quality of life.”
“Through our continued partnership with Tandem, we have seen the
proven benefits of automated insulin delivery. We’re proud that
people living in Canada can now access the latest AID offering with
Dexcom G7, our smallest and most accurate CGM2,” said André Côté,
executive vice president and general manager of Dexcom Canada. “Our
two organizations hold the same core value: foster technological
innovation that leads to a better life for those living with
diabetes. We couldn’t be more pleased to officially bring this
offering to Canadians.”
In December 2023, the t:slim X2 pump with Dexcom G7 integration
launched in the U.S., marking the first time an AID option was
compatible with Dexcom’s latest CGM technology. Now, t:slim X2
users in Canada can experience even more choice when it comes to
CGM compatibility, along with the option to spend more time in
closed loop with Dexcom G7’s 30-minute sensor warm-up time, faster
than any other CGM on the market.3 In addition, t:slim X2 users who
pair Dexcom G7 with an Apple smartwatch4 can see their glucose
numbers directly from their watch without having to access their
pump or smartphone4.
Tandem will email all in-warranty t:slim X2 users in Canada with
instructions on how to add the new compatibility feature free of
charge via remote software update. t:slim X2 pumps pre-loaded with
the updated software will begin shipping to new customers in early
January 2025.

mellitus in people requiring insulin. The t:slim X2 insulin pump
can be used solely for continuous insulin delivery and as part of
the System. When used with a compatible CGM, the System can be used
to automatically increase, decrease, and suspend delivery of basal

value is predicted to exceed a predefined threshold. The pump and
the System are indicated for use in individuals 6 years of age and
greater. The pump and the System are intended for single user use.
The pump and the System are indicated for use with NovoRapid,
Admelog, Trurapi, or Humalog U-100 insulin. The System is intended
for the management of Type 1 diabetes.
WARNING: Control-IQ technology should not be used by anyone
under the age of 6 years old. It should also not be used in users
who require less than 10 units of insulin per day or who weigh less
than 25 kilograms.
The System is not indicated for use in pregnant women, people on
dialysis, or critically ill users. Do not use the System if using
hydroxyurea.
Users of the pump and the System must: be willing and able to
use the insulin pump, CGM, and all other system components in
accordance with their respective instructions for use; test blood
glucose levels as recommended by their healthcare provider;
