ACTON, Mass. – Insulet’s Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) System is now available in the Middle East – including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). “We’re proud to bring Omnipod 5 to a region where the unmet need is great,” said Pat Crannell, senior vice president and international general manager. “These launches build on our significant momentum as we continue to transform the lives of people with diabetes worldwide. It is even more meaningful and impactful with the inaugural introduction of Omnipod Discover, which simplifies data management and helps us create a world where diabetes demands less, every day.” The Omnipod 5 System simplifies diabetes management and has demonstrated strong glycemic outcomes, including improved time in range and lowering HbA1c, by automatically adjusting insulin delivery every five minutes and eliminating the need for multiple daily injections (MDI). Omnipod 5 is indicated for individuals aged two years and older with type 1 diabetes and compatible with the Abbott FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor and the Dexcom G7 sensor in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE, and with the Dexcom G7 sensor in Qatar.
