About OmniPod
When you’re ready to start on the OmniPod System, your healthcare provider will help you program your insulin delivery instructions into the Personal Diabetes Manager (PDM) and get insulin delivery started with your first OmniPod.
Day to day, you’ll change your OmniPod when insulin is depleted or the OmniPod expires (we recommend every 3 days), and use the PDM to adjust your background (basal) insulin, program insulin doses to cover meals or high blood glucose (bolus doses), and check your blood glucose. The PDM guides you every step of the way through all of these operations.
Simply remove the one you’re wearing, then…

| Fill a new OmniPod with the amount of insulin you need for up to 3 days. Each OmniPod holds and delivers up to 200 units of insulin, but you customize it to your needs. During the fill process, the OmniPod automatically primes itself and performs a series of safety checks, and the PDM wirelessly downloads your background (basal) insulin delivery settings. | Apply the OmniPod to your skin. You can wear the OmniPod on your abdomen, lower back, arm, or anywhere that your healthcare provider has shown you. It adheres to your skin with the same adhesive used on popular infusion sets. | Press Start on the PDM and let the OmniPod do the rest to activate the world's fastest [1] insertion and begin background (basal) insulin delivery. Insertion is fully automated and virtually pain-free! [1] |
