Medical supplies and devices are used to manage various conditions, including diabetes, asthma, and certain mental health conditions. These devices work in a variety of ways. Some provide real-time data and essential treatments to help you manage your health effectively. Others provide a physical method for treating certain symptoms. For example, continuous glucose monitors, such as FreeStyle Libre 3 and Dexcom G7, help people manage diabetes by tracking blood sugar levels throughout the day. Carbamide peroxide (Debrox) creates a chemical reaction in the ear canal to help soften and remove built-up earwax. Paragard (copper intrauterine device, or IUD) prevents pregnancy by continuously releasing a small amount of copper to disrupt the movement of sperm in the uterus. These tools and treatments help you maintain better control over your health.
