My A1c has been amazing since I switched to Tandem. I used to wake up with lows, and that’s really scary. But Tandem is my safety net.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the features to look for in an insulin pump for type 1 diabetes?
Finding an insulin pump that gives you options can be beneficial because it can integrate into your lifestyle and how you choose to manage diabetes. For example, if full control from an integrated mobile app is important to you, consider the Tandem Mobi system. If you prefer a user-friendly, all-in-one system with a color touchscreen, then the t:slim X2 insulin pump might be best for you. Both are powered by Control-IQ+ technology, the predictive algorithm that can help prevent highs and lows for more time in range and tighter glycemic control.
How do insulin pumps assist in managing type 1 diabetes?
An insulin pump with automated insulin delivery can reduce the number of decisions a day that someone living with diabetes has to make. It can automate insulin delivery, suspend insulin, or help with automatic corrections for missed meal boluses. Tandem pumps are powered by Control-IQ+ technology and have dedicated settings for sleep and exercise. They can also incorporate Personal Profiles for different days of the week, sick days, menstruation, etc.
What distinguishes different types of insulin pumps?
Some of the biggest differences in insulin pumps are the quality of the predictive algorithm, integration with different CGM sensors, and wearability options. An insulin pump that offers more choices for wearability, infusion set options, or the ability to discreetly move your pump throughout the day can be critical in your decision-making process. Talk with your healthcare provider about what features are important to you.
Is there a specific Tandem insulin pump recommended for type 1 diabetes?
Because Tandem Diabetes Care insulin pumps are powered by Control-IQ+ technology, they offer best-in-class outcomes regardless of whether you choose the Tandem Mobi system or t:slim X2 insulin pump. It’s a question of which features you’re looking for. Tandem Mobi, the world’s smallest, durable automated insulin delivery system,7 offers enhanced wearability options, like on- or off-body wear. The t:slim X2 insulin pump pairs with multiple CGM sensors and is an all-in-one system.
How do I choose the right type 1 diabetes insulin pump for my needs?
Talk with your healthcare provider about what is most important to you for your diabetes management. Do you value wearability and discretion? Are best-in-class outcomes important? How about continuous automation and dedicated settings for sleep and exercise? Tandem Diabetes Care insulin pumps have options to fit every lifestyle.

Indications for Use
Tandem Mobi system: The Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology (the pump) is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring insulin. The Pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices. The pump is indicated for use in persons 2 years of age and greater.
t:slim X2 insulin pump: The t:slim X2 insulin pump with interoperable technology (the pump) is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring insulin. The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices. The pump is indicated for use in persons 2 years of age and greater.
Control-IQ+ technology: Control-IQ+ technology is intended for use with compatible integrated continuous glucose monitors (iCGM, sold separately) and alternate controller enabled (ACE) pumps to automatically increase, decrease, and suspend delivery of basal insulin based on iCGM readings and predicted glucose values. It can also deliver correction boluses when the glucose value is predicted to exceed a predefined threshold. Control-IQ+ technology is intended for the management of type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons 2 years of age and greater and of type 2 diabetes mellitus in persons 18 years of age and greater.
Warning: Control-IQ+ technology should not be used in anyone under the age of 2 years old with type 1 diabetes or under the age of 18 years old with type 2 diabetes. It should also not be used in patients who require less than a total daily insulin dose of 5 units of insulin per day or who weigh less than 20 pounds (9 kilograms), as those are the required minimum values needed for Control-IQ+ to operate safely.
Users of the pump and Control-IQ+ must: use the insulin pump, iCGM, and all other system components in accordance with their respective instructions for use. Failure to follow these instructions for use could result in an over delivery or under delivery of insulin. This can cause hypoglycemia (low BG) or hyperglycemia (high BG) events.
