As a safety feature, the correction bolus is always
delivered first and cannot be extended. Only the
meal bolus can be extended. For example:
Total bolus = 5 units
Meal bolus 4 units
Correction bolus 1 unit
Deliver now = 2 units
100% of correction bolus 1 unit
25% of meal bolus 1 unit
Extend = 3 units
75% of meal portion 3 units
As a safety feature, you cannot deliver two extended
boluses at the same time. You can deliver a normal
bolus while an extended bolus is being delivered.
