How does the tool calculate the total dose?

The tool calculates the meal bolus based on carbohydrates and the correction bolus based on the difference between current and target glucose, then subtracts the active insulin (IOB) to prevent stacking.

What happens if my blood glucose is too low?

If the current blood glucose is below 70 mg/dL, the tool will trigger a hypoglycemia warning and recommend a dose of 0 to ensure safety.

Can I use this to track my insulin on board?

Yes, you can use `estimate_iob_decay` to estimate how much insulin remains active in your body based on the time elapsed since your last dose.

More Details Connect to Claude

This MCP server provides precise tools for diabetes management. Use calculate_insulin_dose to determine the total insulin required by combining carbohydrate needs and glucose correction. Use estimate_iob_decay to track remaining active insulin, and validate_glucose_safety to ensure blood glucose levels are within safe limits before bolusing.
