The product was developed for use by people with Type 2 diabetes in the early part of the treatment. It is designed to encourage patients to switch to pod therapy for their insulin delivery instead of taking daily injections.
It also supports a seamless transition to another Omnipod product in case of patients requiring both basal and bolus insulin. Omnipod GO is designed to provide convenience for primary care physicians and patients.
The FDA clearance will boost Insulet鈥檚 plans to commercialise the product in the US next year.
