Insulin Pump Therapies

An insulin pump is an alternative treatment method for people with diabetes who are being treated with intensive insulin therapy using a syringe or a pen and regularly measure their blood sugar. An insulin pump replaces the injections. It is worn externally on the body, e.g., on a belt.

Approximately 250,000 people worldwide are currently being treated with an insulin pump. Get information on the following pages about the basics and advantages of this form of therapy, about how Accu-Chek pumps function as well as a variety of medical details.
