What Is An Insulin Pump And How Does It Work?

Why Use It?

Insulin pumps are designed to mimic the pancreas by slowly releasing insulin levels. The body might better tolerate this method as opposed to administering one injection per day. Insulin pumps can be programmed like a computer, meaning insulin levels do not need to be measured before being administered. They can also be set to inject more insulin if a big meal is eaten or prevent insulin from being administered if is not needed. Insulin pumps can be hidden under clothing and worn discretely.
