Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein are systems and methods for the delivery of a co-formulation of insulin and a second drug, such as GLP-1, using an automated insulin delivery system. In a first embodiment, a dose of insulin is calculated by a medication delivery algorithm and a reduction factor is applied to account for the effect of second drug on the user's daily insulin requirement. In a second embodiment of the invention, a total amount of the second drug administered to the user during the past 24 hours is used to modify the correction factor and the insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio used by the medication delivery algorithm to cause a reduction in the insulin delivered to the user to account for the effect of the administration of the second drug portion of the co-formulation.
