1. A computer-implemented method of infusing insulin via an insulin pump, comprising:

  • identifying an insulin delivery protocol associated with ingestion of carbohydrates wherein the insulin delivery protocol is likely to lead to a postprandial drop in blood glucose to a level below a basal level that is likely to deprive a patient of sufficient blood glucose to function normally; and

    proposing at least one alternative insulin delivery protocol to inhibit the postprandial drop in blood glucose level by delivering a metered amount of insulin that is appropriate to facilitate the metabolism of the carbohydrates without the postprandial blood glucose level drop; and

    applying the alternative insulin delivery protocol.
