Why Use an Insulin Pump?
An insulin pump provides you with insulin in an optimal manner and gives you
freedom and flexibility in life:
-
More stable metabolic control with better HbA1c values and less episodes of
severe hypoglycemia.
-
Be more functional even if stress and an irregular work schedule disrupts your
daily routine.
-
Eat when you want, what you want and frequently even much as you want – for
pleasure and not because you are compelled to do so.
-
Participate in sports when you are so inclined without having to plan for it
hours in advance.
-
No syringes or injections with the pen.
-
Sleep late in the morning
Greater freedom and flexibility with food: No extra injections if you decide
to have dessert. And if you’re not hungry or don’t have the time, just skip a
meal.
Sleeping in is allowed: An insulin pump supplies you with your basic insulin
requirement around the clock even through the night.
