In Case You Missed It: News Roundup for Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) System

At Insulet Corporation, makers of Omnipod®, we were born of innovation and a thirst for finding a better, simpler way. Our goal has been and continues to be to reduce burden and improve outcomes for people with diabetes.

Now, after several years in development, the Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) System has officially been cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for individuals ages 6 years and older with type 1 diabetes!

Omnipod 5 is the first tubeless AID system managed through a compatible smartphone1 in the U.S. and the only tubeless AID system that integrates with the Dexcom G6® Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) System2 to automatically adjust insulin delivery and manage glucose levels both day and night, helping to protect against highs and lows3. Like Omnipod DASH® it continues to be wearable and waterproof.
