The UK continuous glucose monitoring devices market size was valued at USD 532.2 million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 1,952.8 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 15.5% from 2025 to 2033. The UK continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices market is growing due to rising diabetes prevalence, increasing demand for real-time glucose monitoring, and NHS support for CGM adoption, especially among insulin-treated Type 1 and Type 2 patients. Technological advancements, such as long-lasting sensors, smartphone integration, and non-invasive devices, further drive market penetration. Companies like Abbott, Dexcom, and newcomers like Yuwell are making CGMs more accessible and affordable. Government-backed initiatives focusing on prevention, remission, and personalized diabetes management also contribute to market expansion.
New research from the University of Leicester's Diabetes Research Centre highlights the significant benefits of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for individuals with Type 2 diabetes in the UK, while also revealing barriers to its widespread adoption. CGM devices, usually worn on the arm, allow real-time tracking of blood glucose levels, enabling quicker, more accurate treatment decisions. The study, published in Diabetic Medicine, confirms that CGMs help reduce episodes of high and low blood sugar, support lifestyle improvements, and provide doctors with actionable data. However, it also identifies a lack of adequate training among healthcare professionals and resistance to new workflows as major hindrances.
More than 3.6 million people in the UK are living with diabetes, with about 90% diagnosed with Type 2. This chronic condition, though manageable through medication and lifestyle changes, remains a leading cause of preventable complications such as vision loss, kidney failure, and cardiovascular disease.
