FreeStyle brand

The FreeStyle butterfly symbolises hope and renewal, and now it is the inspiration for the FreeStyle brand. Lively and carefree, butterflies first find their wings after a time of great personal change. They learn their lives are different now. The comforts of one way of life are behind them, they learn to fly, and they are not alone.

This transformation is much like the kind made by everyone who finds the courage to live life to the fullest while dealing with diabetes. The FreeStyle butterfly reflects this desire as well as our commitment to you.

Through our products and services, we partner with you and your healthcare team to help bring you a sense of personal progress, so you can reach new heights and get more out of life than you ever thought possible.

DIABETES CARE HISTORY

Abbott entered the glucose monitoring marketplace with the acquisition of MediSense in 1996. In April 2004, Abbott announced it had completed the acquisition of TheraSense, a leader in developing glucose self-monitoring devices that require very small blood samples to deliver rapid test results, Virtually Pain-Free. The TheraSense acquisition strengthened Abbott’s position in the large and growing glucose monitoring market.
