Frequently asked questions

Add icon collapse icon

What is the MiniMed Go system?

Add icon collapse icon

The MiniMed Go system is a diabetes management system combining the InPenTM smart insulin pen, a compatible continuous glucose monitor, and the MiniMed Go mobile app. Together, these technologies help you deliver the right dose at the right time.

Who can use MiniMed Go?

Add icon collapse icon

When used with Instinct CGM, the app is indicated for patients ages 7 years and older, or patients ages 2 to 6 years under the supervision of an adult caregiver. When used with Simplera CGM, the app is indicated for patients ages 18 and over. If using InPen alone, the app is intended for all ages, with patients under age 7 requiring supervision. 

Can I use another company’s CGM with this system?

Add icon collapse icon

No, the only compatible sensors for the MiniMed Go system are the SimpleraTM sensor and Instinct sensor.

How close does the app need to be to the insulin pen to not lose connection?

Add icon collapse icon

For pairing, the InPen must be within 3 feet (1 meter) of the MiniMed Go app. The InPen does not need to stay within range of the MiniMed Go app unless a dose is being administered. The pen and app must be within 3 feet (1 meter) for data to be sent. 

 

Make sure the MiniMed Go app and the sensor are located within 20 feet to ensure glucose data is being communicated.

What’s the difference between MiniMed FlexTM and MiniMed Go?

Add icon collapse icon

MiniMed FlexTM is an automated insulin delivery system that uses an insulin pump. MiniMed Go is a smart multiple daily injection system.

How long is the warranty?

Add icon collapse icon

MiniMed warrants the InPen smart insulin pen against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 1 year from the date of purchase. 

Can I get MiniMed Go if I do not have a compatible smartphone?

Add icon collapse icon

If you don’t have a compatible smartphone, we can provide an App App Manager — a separate device that gives you access to the MiniMed Go app.

Ensure that all doses taken with InPen are logged in the app, that all doses taken with a device other than InPen are logged manually in the app, and that glucose and meal information entered into the dose calculator are current and accurate. Not doing so can result in incorrect dosing, hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia, and serious injury.

Important safety information: MiniMed Go system

The MiniMed Go system includes the MiniMed Go app, InPen smart insulin pen injector and either the Instinct continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor or Simplera CGM sensor. The system is intended to aid in diabetes management through multiple daily injections of compatible rapid-acting insulins (Humalog, Novolog, or Fiasp). The app and system components each require a prescription. When used with Instinct CGM, the app is indicated for patients ages 7 years and older, or patients ages 2 to 6 years under the supervision of an adult caregiver. When used with Simplera CGM, the app is indicated for patients ages 18 and over. If using InPen alone, the app is intended for all ages, with patients under age 7 requiring supervision. Use of these systems requires, among other things, adequate hearing and vision, a compatible mobile device and operating system, an open app, adequate pairing and connectivity, proper setting, use of an approved rapid-acting insulin, mobile device battery power, proper settings, accurate manual logging of insulin doses administered by means other than InPen, and occasional blood glucose meter (BGM) readings. Establishment of settings and treatment decisions should be made in consultation with a healthcare professional and on the basis of a combination of glucose readings, trend arrows, glucose target, active alerts, and recent events (such as insulin doses, exercise, meals, and medications). Failure to observe these and other details as found in the user guides can result in incorrect dosing, missed alerts and notifications, and ultimately hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia, with serious injury or death possible.
