V-Go Insulin Delivery System
Simple All-Day-and-Night Insulin Delivery
Insulin delivery that’s worn like a patch! V-Go is designed to easily fit into your life and help you manage diabetes by combining all of your insulin needs into one simple patch-like device. No more insulin pens or syringes!
V-Go supplies insulin in two ways, similar to the way your body produces insulin:
- Provides a steady rate of background insulin over a 24-hour period
- Discreetly provides additional insulin at mealtimes by simply clicking a button
By using V-Go, you can live your life on the go without stopping to gather supplies or look for a private place to give yourself an injection.
If you have Type 2 diabetes and are taking multiple daily injections, the V-Go insulin delivery system may be the perfect solution for you. Our Diabetes Care team at our sister company, GEM Edwards Pharmacy, focuses on personalized care and will walk you through the entire process.
