Individuals using an affected Pod may notice wetness on their skin or Pod adhesive or detect the smell of insulin. However, in some cases, this issue may be difficult to detect and go unnoticed.
If insulin is not delivered properly, users may experience high blood glucose levels due to under-delivery of insulin. In the most severe cases, prolonged and persistent high blood glucose levels can lead to diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a serious medical condition that requires prompt medical treatment and can be life-threatening if not treated.
Approximately 7 million Pods are included within the scope of this action, approximately 60% of which have been consumed or are expired. The Pods affected by this correction represent approximately 8.5% of 2025 global Omnipod Pod production. Globally, there have been 24 reports of serious adverse events associated with high blood glucose levels, including hospitalization and DKA. There have been no deaths reported.
This issue does not affect continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems or CGM readings.
The issue was identified through the Company’s ongoing product monitoring.
