Expanding Impact of CGM in All Types of Diabetes Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is reshaping diabetes care, extending benefits well beyond insulin-treated populations. Dexcom CGM Systems, including Dexcom G7 and Dexcom G7 15 Day, automatically measure and send accurate1 glucose readings to a patient’s phone* or receiver in real time, eliminating the need for fingersticks.† Dexcom’s mission centers on empowering people with diabetes – including those with type 2 diabetes (T2D) on noninsulin therapy (NIT) – to take a more proactive, informed approach to their care with real-time data from Dexcom CGM Systems. Dexcom G7 15 Day offers up to 15 days of wear in a compact, all-in-one sensor that continuously streams glucose data to a smartphone or receiver. This extended wear time reduces interruptions, while intuitive data displays and customizable alerts help patients better understand glucose patterns.

Insulin Injection Technique Matters By Pasha Javadi, Senior Director, Global Medical Affairs and Human Factors, embecta For over a century, insulin therapy has been a cornerstone of diabetes care. Yet despite major advances in insulin formulations and devices over the
decades, one critical aspect of therapy has often been overlooked: how insulin is actually delivered. Too often, clinical conversations focus primarily on dose and product selection, while injection technique, device handling and patient education receive far less attention. This gap can have meaning-
Experts Say Indoor Air Quality Now Demands Greater Attention Americans spend approximately 90% of their time indoors, where pollutant levels can reach two to five times higher than outdoor air, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. Asthma, allergies, wildfire smoke exposure and airborne pollutants continue to rise nationwide, placing greater attention on indoor air quality as a public health and wellness concern. Alen, a leading air quality company
specializing in advanced air purification, says consumers now pay far closer attention to the connection between indoor air quality, wellness, productivity, sleep quality and healthier indoor environments. The data supports this as more than 106 million Americans live with asthma and/or allergies. The American Lung Association reports more than 156 million Americans reside in areas with unhealthy ozone or

That is why the publication of the FITTER Forward Expert Recommendations in Mayo Clinic Proceedings represents an important milestone for the global diabetes community. Developed by 16 diabetes specialists from 13 countries, these updated recommendations provide clear, evidence-based guidance on insulin injection technique and education, reflecting advances in technology, research and real-world clinical experience since the original FITTER guidance was introduced in 2016. The updated recommendations address several critical areas. They incorporate new insights into injection device technology, including optimal needle length, design, width and sharpness to improve comfort and ensure accurate insulin delivery into the subcutaneous fat layer. They also establish standardized injection techniques aimed at reducing complications such as lipohypertrophy, which can lead to inconsistent insulin absorption and unpredictable glucose control.
Equally important, FITTER Forward emphasizes the role of structured training for healthcare providers. Clinicians need practical, standardized tools to educate and support patients effectively – particularly as injectable therapies expand beyond insulin to include GLP-1 receptor agonists and other medicines. Empowering providers with up-to-date, actionable guidance enables more consistent education and better patient experiences across care settings. At embecta, we believe proper injection technique is a fundamental component of effective insulin therapy. Correct administration can make the difference between suboptimal control and meaningful clinical improvement. By supporting initiatives such as FITTER Forward and sharing research-backed recommendations with the healthcare community, we can help ensure injection therapy is performed safely, comfortably and effectively, potentially improving outcomes for millions of people living with diabetes worldwide.
particle pollution levels. Climate trends, longer pollen seasons, wildfire smoke exposure and worsening urban air pollution have accelerated concern around indoor air quality nationwide. The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America’s 2026 Allergy Capitals® report notes some regions now experience pollen seasons nearly year-round, while severe weather patterns continue to intensify seasonal allergy conditions across the country. "People now talk about their indoor air quality. They are experiencing the ramifications of longer allergy
seasons, wildfire smoke, and urban pollution," said Dr. John McKeon, Chief Executive Officer of Allergy Standards Ltd. "Consumers today expect sciencebacked solutions supported through independent testing and certification and are turning to trusted companies that invest in science, like Alen, to meet those standards." Concerns around healthier buildings and indoor wellness now extend beyond homes into workplaces, schools, healthcare facilities, hospitality spaces and commercial real estate.

At the same time, K-Beauty is raising the bar for affordable, high-performance products, faster innovation cycles and commerce models that connect discovery to purchase more seamlessly.

mented by a full range of closure options – from snap-on designs to child-resistant formats – with custom printing available to help strengthen brand identity. Sustainability remains a central focus. Amcor’s pharmacy packaging is designed with circularity in mind, leveraging engineering expertise and proprietary manufacturing processes to reduce environmental impact while helping healthcare brands meet ambitious sustainability objectives. Produced from mono-material – fully recyclable polypropylene (PP) – many of these packaging systems are designed so the vial and closure can be recycled together, simplifying the recycling process. Lightweight designs further reduce transportation-related emissions while maintaining the performance standards customers expect. Quality assurance is equally impor-
tant. Prescription medications can be sensitive to light exposure, making packaging performance essential to preserving efficacy. Amcor maintains rigorous quality standards and conducts extensive light-transmission testing to help ensure compliance with Consumer Product Safety Commission and United States Pharmacopeia requirements. At its Jackson, Tennessee facility, the company has also implemented innovative UV light transmission technology that enables safer, faster testing and increased inspection capacity – reinforcing a commitment to delivering consistently high-quality products. Reliability rounds out the foundation of Amcor’s offering. With manufacturing across multiple U.S. facilities, inventory available for many stock products, state-of-the-art clean room operations, comprehensive testing
programs and custom design capabilities, Amcor helps customers simplify supply chains while ensuring dependable product availability. As healthcare continues to advance, the need for packaging that combines sustainability, quality and reliability has never been greater. By bringing together Berry’s trusted pharmacy packaging heritage and Amcor’s global innovation leadership, Amcor is well positioned to help pharmacies, healthcare providers and brand owners deliver confidence with every prescription – and every dose. Amcor packaging solutions are available through major pharmacy wholesalers and distributors nationwide.
