Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ: PODD) (Insulet or the Company), the global leader in tubeless insulin pump technology with its Omnipod® brand of products, today announced the Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) System is now compatible with Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor in the U.S. This makes Omnipod 5 the most connected tubeless AID system in the U.S.

“We are excited to announce that Omnipod 5, the only AID system indicated for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, is now integrated with Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor in the U.S. This latest innovation will allow millions of Americans who take insulin the ability to get started on Pod therapy using their preferred CGM sensor,” said Eric Benjamin, Insulet’s Executive Vice President and Chief Product and Customer Experience Officer. “As we work to reach more people with our innovative, tubeless Omnipod 5 AID System, today’s announcement represents yet another significant step forward for our Company and our customers.”

The Omnipod 5 System simplifies diabetes management and has shown to improve results by eliminating the need for multiple daily injections (MDI) therapy and automatically adjusting insulin delivery every five minutes using its advanced SmartAdjustTM technology. As the number one prescribed and number one favorite pump1 in the U.S., the waterproof2, discreet, and wearable Omnipod 5 is the first tubeless AID system that communicates with a CGM, proactively correcting for highs and helping to protect against lows, day and night3,4,5.

Omnipod 5 user John Rowley, who lives in the United Kingdom where the FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor integration launched earlier this year, had been using MDI for 36 years before making the switch to Pod therapy.

“Having spent more than half my life injecting myself with insulin, Omnipod 5 with its connection to my FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor has been truly liberating. When you have diabetes, there is so much more to think about when it comes to daily life,” said Mr. Rowley. “Omnipod 5 has made my life so much simpler, with much less to carry around with me, and less to worry about overall.”
