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 hypoglycaemia*
• 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. An insulin pump supplies you with your basic insulin requirements around the clock even through the night
