Insulin pumps are small-computerized devices that deliver insulin in a measured and continuous dose (basal) and in a surge dose (bolus) at your direction around mealtimes. Insulin pumps are generally for people with Type 1 diabetes, but also could play a role in the treatment for some people with Type 2 diabetes.

Early diagnosis is very important. The first-line treatment is diet, weight control and physical activity. If the blood sugar level remains high then medication is usually advised. Insulin injections are needed in some cases.
