Bolus Wizard feature specifications
There are three different formulas the Bolus Wizard feature uses to estimate a bolus, depending on
your current blood glucose:
Notes:
➠If a Dual Wave bolus is less than the estimate due to the
max bolus limit or a user change, the square (sq) portion is
reduced first.
➠Based on the Active Insulin Time setting you choose, the
pump keeps track of how much insulin is still active in your
body. This prevents “stacking” of insulin, and lowers the
chances of hypoglycemia.
