FAQs - Insulin Pumps
The Insulet OmniPod system is built for use with rapid-acting insulin. The analogs NovoLog/NovoRapid, Humalog, Fiasp and Apidra have been tested and found safe to use with this system.
The system can hold up to 200 units of insulin at a time. At minimum, the system requires 85 units of insulin to begin operating
You can fill a new Pod by using the fill needle and syringe included in its package. Other needles or filling devices should not be used with the Insulet OmniPod system.
