The Accu-Chek^® Solo tubeless patch pump is attached to your body with the pump holder (an adhesive pad) that allows insulin delivery through a soft tube (cannula) - and lets you attach and detach the tubeless patch pump when ever you like.

The Accu-Chek^® Solo tubeless patch pump gives you the flexibility to choose where to place the system, from four possible body zones. Some recommended sites are the abdomen, hips, lower back, buttocks, upper thigh and upper arm. We recommend consulting your health care professional on the sites which are most suitable for you, since insulin absorption rates at different sites may vary.

63 x 39 x 14 mm (L × W × H)
