● The connection of the Novo Nordisk® smart insulin pens with the mySugr Logbook is now available on iOS in the first country Sweden, with more markets to follow.

● Bringing data together and setting it into context provides patients and healthcare professionals with a broader picture of the individual diabetes therapy and aims to support its optimization.

● This new experience marks a significant milestone for mySugr and Roche’s vision of integrated Personalised Diabetes Management (iPDM).

Today mySugr announced the integration of the Novo Nordisk NovoPen 6® and NovoPen Echo® Plus into the mySugr Logbook on iOS. The integration follows the collaboration agreement signed between Roche and Novo Nordisk in 2019. Users can record and track their smart insulin pen data via Near Field Communication (NFC) in the mySugr app, and combine it with blood glucose values, activities, meals and other relevant diabetes data. The solution is currently available in Sweden and will be launched in more countries in the coming months.

Users can connect multiple Novo Nordisk smart insulin pens to the mySugr Logbook and create comprehensive reports of their diabetes data.
