Omnipod issued a massive pod recall today around 5:30PM EDT.
If you need to replace more than 20 affected Omnipod 5 pods, or more than 10 Omnipod Dash pods, you have to call Product Support directly. Otherwise, you can just use their online reporting form for those smaller pod amounts.
I would recommend checking your lot numbers now and calling ASAP. They anticipate running out of pod stock during this recall.
Did a bit of digging through ChatGPT ands found the below.
Insulet/Omnipod posted an Urgent: New Medical Device Correction for Omnipod Pods today, May 26, 2026. It affects specific lots of:
Omnipod 5 Pods
Omnipod DASH Pods
Omnipod Eros / Omnipod Insulin Management System Pods
This is separate from the March 12, 2026 Omnipod 5 recall. The March issue involved a possible internal tubing leak inside the Pod. This new May 26 issue involves a possible small tear in the cannula/tubing just above the skin, meaning insulin may leak outside the infusion site instead of fully going into the body. (Omnipod)
The risk is under-delivery of insulin, which can cause unexplained highs, highs that do not respond like expected to correction insulin, and in serious cases DKA. Insulet says there have been 24 serious adverse event reports globally, including hospitalization and DKA, with no deaths reported. (Insulet Corporation)
What concerns me most is that Insulet says this may happen without an alert, so families should not rely only on Pod alarms. You might notice wetness on the skin or adhesive, or smell insulin, but it can also be hard to detect. (Omnipod)
What you should do now:
Check the lot number on the Pod tray lid, the 5-pack Pod box, or the flat side/bottom of the Pod. Insulet says all Pods in the same box are from the same lot, so if one Pod box lot is affected, do not use any Pods from that box. (Omnipod)
Use Insulet’s official Check Pods & Request Replacements page, or call Product Support at 1-800-641-2049, available 24/7. The official checker page says you enter the Pod lot number and, if needed, request replacements. (Omnipod)
For the United States, the affected lots listed by Insulet include:
Omnipod DASH:
PD1U01082621, PD1U02152521, PD1U02192521, PD1U04242522, PD1U09062421, PD1U09092421, PD1U09102421, PD1U10242421, PD1U10252421, PD1U10282421, PD1U10282522, PD1U10292421, PD1U10292521, PD1U10302521, PD1U10312421, PD1U10312521, PD1U11012421, PD1U11022421, PD1U11032521, PD1U11042421, PD1U11042521, PD1U11052421, PD1U11192421. (Omnipod)
Omnipod 5:
The U.S. Omnipod 5 list is very long, so I would not manually rely on eyeballing it. Use the official lot checker. The list includes many PH1U and PR1U lots, and Insulet’s page has the full U.S. list. (Omnipod)
There are eros pods and other dash pods too. I’ll paste it in here from the email I received just for completeness.
