Deltec Cozmo Insulin Pump Will be Discontinued

Not able to compete with Medtronic-Minimed and J&J Animas, Smiths Medical announced today that it will stop selling the Deltec Cozmo® insulin pump and gradually exit from the diabetes business.

What does this mean to you and me?

  • When your pump approaches the end of its warranty period, you should consult with your physician to choose an insulin pump from another manufacturer.
  • Smiths Medical will work with pump users to transfer purchases of cartridges and infusion sets to one of the many national and/or regional distributors that stock these items.
