Warning:
NEVER inject insulin (or anything else) into the fill port while
the Pod is on your body. Doing so may result in unintended or interrupted
insulin delivery.
Avoid Infusion Site Infections
Check the infusion site at least once a day:
• Be aware of signs of infection, including pain, swelling, redness, discharge, or
heat at the site. If you suspect an infection, immediately remove the Pod and
apply a new one in a different location. Then call your healthcare provider.
• If you observe any problems with the Pod, replace it with a new Pod.
