Product Support – Drug Pumps

Over time you may have questions about your Medtronic drug delivery therapy or system. Here you’ll find a variety of resources to guide you toward answers.

Sources of Ongoing Support

In most cases, your doctor and his or her staff should be your first point of contact, but Medtronic also offers ongoing support. The information below will help you determine who to contact when you have questions.

Your Doctor
Please direct all medical, medication, and therapy questions to your doctor’s office. Your doctor has access to your medical records and history and can best diagnose any change in symptoms. Ask your doctor how to reach the on-call doctor for any medical concerns that arise after hours or on weekends.

Medtronic Patient Services
Call Medtronic Patient Services if you have questions regarding your drug delivery therapy or system. Note that as a medical device manufacturer, Medtronic can offer technical assistance when you have questions about or problems with your drug delivery therapy or system; however, Medtronic is not able to comment on your medical condition.
