  • Current CGM use where Time in Range is ≥60.0% or Time \<54% is ≤1.0%.
  • Current use of any off-label glucose-lowering medications for diabetes type (Example: T1D use of non-insulin, anti-diabetic medications including SGLT2 inhibitors). Use of such medications during the study will also be prohibited.
  • Females who are pregnant, intending to become pregnant, or breastfeeding during the study
