Smart insulin pens keep track of your last injection amount and can even recommend dosing based on your glucose levels and carb ratios. For people with diabetes who do not want to use an insulin pump, these new tools offer many of the same benefits of automation. Be sure to ask your diabetes care team about smart pens at your next visit.
