What are the advantages of an insulin pump?
The greatest advantage of an insulin pump is that it can help you better manage your blood glucose level. In addition, it can provide you with lifestyle flexibility – you can travel, exercise, work or eat without worrying about injections and when the insulin will take affect. Health advantages may include lowering of an A1C level, fewer low blood glucose (hypoglycemic) reactions, the reduced likelihood of diabetes-related complications (heart and kidney disease, vision loss and nerve damage), and improved physical and psychological well-being.
