Dexcom G4 receiver fall in water

Hi Christian, I have never tried it myself, but the 2 things I have heard a number of times for wet mobile phones are 1) place the unit in a jar of dried (uncooked) rice and leave. The rice apparently absorbs the water. 2) My father in law got a mobile phone wet and purchased a substance which came in a plastic bag designed for this situation off the internet. However, it did not work but for £5 or £10 it might be worth trying!

I remember seeing somewhere on Dexcom's website that they will replace the receiver for $199usd one time. Couldn't find it today, but it was definitely there less than a month ago.

I think it probably depends on the goegraphy. I suspect that if the OP is in the UK, they will have to take their chances with Advanced Therapeutics... Having that info will help!

As the receiver isn't waterproof then replacement will be at your own cost or contents ins on your house. Rice and airing cupboard
