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.
