Does anyone need any omnipod5 supplies?

[jd89]

Hi, I've switched from omnipod5 to omnipod dash but was sent my 3 months supply of omnipod5 shortly before my switch and now I have almost 3 full boxes of pods which I won't use (all sealed). Omnipod won't take them back so I was wondering if they would be of any use to anyone here? Or does anyone know where I should send them? I won't use them at all

When I was switched to Dexcom G7 from the original Dexcom One, I received a delivery of no longer required Dex Ones and neither Dexcom nor the Hospital Pharmacy would take the parcel back. My Hospital D team took them off me for "spares". In hindsight that made great sense, they were best placed to find suitable "customers".

Sadly my hospital won’t take them. I’m in Scotland, I’ve found policies differ a bit between England and Scotland (assuming you’re in England?)

IDDT take some unused supplies to pass on to countries where they are a
unaffordable or unavailable, see this thread for a link to them.

Hi @JJay, the IDDT accept donations of diabetes supplies to help people living with diabetes in Ukraine. They usually appreciate things like lancets, pen needles and unused insulin, but might be worth reaching out to them to see if they'd accept the bits you have. More details here: https://www.iddt.org/here-to-help/helping-developing-countries/

Thanks @Anna DUK . IDDT will be my next port of call. I donated some unwanted pre-filled pens earlier in the year

What's the date's on them?
I am going to take my omnipod dash's to the hospital next time I go, as I won't use them. I have loads of 5's though, thank you
