What is Smart MDI?

For people who manage their diabetes with insulin injections, Smart MDI helps relieve the physical and mental effort required, by using an ecosystem of smart-enabled technology devices, to help make your life a bit easier.

If your patient isn’t ready for or interested in a pump, Smart MDI offers some of the advantages of insulin pumps while still offering the freedom of daily injections. The Smart MDI family works together to help your patients stay ahead of their diabetes.
