Simplify diabetes management for your patients

Healthcare providers (HCPs) like you who care for people with diabetes are talking with more and more patients who are interested in the benefits of an insulin pump. Among Canadian HCPs, complexity is the #1 reason that pumps are not recommended for some patients.1

Pod Therapy is something you might consider instead.

Omnipod® provides a simple, effective alternative to both multiple daily injections (MDI) and tubed pumps for patients requiring insulin.
