Managing mealtime insulin with pens and syringes can feel like carrying around a mini pharmacy—constant prep, multiple injections, and the worry about discretion. CeQur Simplicity is working to “simplify” that. This wearable insulin patch delivers rapid-acting doses via a tiny flexible cannula, without tubing. With one click you can deliver two units for meals or corrections. The best part is the insulin patch is FDA-cleared to be worn for up to 4 days. Longer wear time is a trend we’re beginning to see with Tandem and Medtronic’s 7-day infusion sets.
Inside the CeQur patch are practical features: it holds up to 200 units of insulin, uses soft, low-profile materials for comfort, and includes safety mechanisms like a two-button dosing system and audible feedback. It’s water-resistant so daily routines—showers, light activity—don’t interfere. It’s made to be discreet, easy to apply, and simple to use even with minimal training. That said, I think the design can use a clean-up when it comes to all the on-device verbiage. If CeQur really wanted to be “discreet,” it would either remove the writing or indent the words and remove the ink.
What’s especially exciting is the patch’s impact in clinical and real-world settings. Users show improved time-in-range (up to ~50% increase in some studies), A1C reductions (around 1.7%), and high satisfaction because it replaces up to twelve mealtime injections per patch.
If you're curious how it feels in action — application, dosing, and how it fits into daily life — the CeQur CEO walks us through all that and more in our latest podcast. Scroll down and watch the episode below or listen to it above.
