Example 1: Max bolus

Shelby takes very small doses of insulin for her meal boluses. As a safety limit, she and her healthcare
professional reset her pump with a maximum bolus of 5.0 units.

Example 2: Max bolus

David is a growing teenager. He loves to eat big meals and requires very large doses of insulin for his
food. He reset his pump with a maximum bolus of 20.0 units so he can take more insulin when he needs
to.
