Insulin Pump Supplies

Insulin pump therapy is a method of insulin replacement therapy that uses a small device to deliver continuous and customized doses of rapid-acting insulin 24 hours a day to match your body's needs.  The insulin pump delivers insulin to your body in two ways: background (basal) insulin, which are small amounts of insulin that are released continuously throughout the day, and bolus insulin, which is delivered in larger amounts when you eat. Insulin pumps are considered an alternative insulin therapy method to multiple daily injections (MDI), insulin pens, or inhaled insulin.
