HypafixDressing Retention Tape 4" x 10 Yards, 1 Roll

This is the best tape I have found. After working in health care for 50 years, both clinics and surgery, I was pleasantly surprised and very satisfied with this tape. My dermatologist used this tape (multiple MOHS procedures) and I immediately went online and ordered for my inhome dressing changes. Very good retention, comes in more than one width, able to cut to the size you need, comfortable, stays in place but easy to remove. Hospitals should used this for their surgical dressings.

I use this to hold the larger 75mcg Fentanyl patches in place. I had spent months trying other "tapes" and my skin is sensitive and dry and I often got blisters and tape burn. Also with the "regular" type of tapes I can only tape around the outside edge and the center of the patch would not adhere or lay flat. After a lot a research it was either Hypafix Tape or Tagaderm Patches. When I kept reading that the people that used the Hypafix (and many if not most were previous Tagaderm users) kept raving about the comfort and overall better feeling with no "tape burns" etc. Not to mention the cost. I read that most people buy one box of Hypafix and it lasts for almost a year! At this point I was going to try it. All I can say so far is it's so comfortable I can't tell I am wearing it. It is very soft like a cloth and perforated and breaths really well. It is very flexible yet stays in place and so far not one corner has peeled up. I am very impressed so far. I will update my review after I have given this sometime to see if I can find any drawbacks. I would be ecstatic if this works and I stop wasting my money on those ridiculously expensive Fentanyl patches.Well its been a couple weeks and I couldn't be happier. This tape is just amazing. Not only can I not tell I am not wearing it but it stays on even when wet, sleeping and just daily use. What is so amazing about how this tape wears is that in my case I cut a section and put it over my patch (I did learn you need to get it on the right spot the first time, it not very forgiving on being pulled off and reapplied.) But the corners do not lift and start to roll up. Since I wear this 24-7 for 2-3 days at a time it's great to not have the corners start to lift or roll up. With other tapes this was a major problem and while sleeping the old tapes would often roll up on the corners or my shirt rubbing would start it lifting away. I have no idea how this holds but its sticks like no other and I can use less since I don't have to compensate for the edges lifting.The final part: removal, well lets just say I was shocked that it does not leave any residue or only a very small amount that washes off. I have no idea what they use for an adhesive but I can't separate my patch from the tape, not that it matters just rather interesting. And lastly the adhesive doesn't irritate my skin at all. The other tapes would often leave blisters or red welts where the tape was and that was using some spendy 3M tape that could only be applied to the edges of the patch and not completely over it like this can be. 5 Stars, now I am going to stock up on this just in case it not available in the future.

This retention tape is awesome. It’s wide enough to cover the whole wound area, easy to work with and a little stretchy.

best tape I've found for non surgical foreskin restoration, sticks well and is flexible enough to be comfortable. it's been very effective

This is literally the only adhesive I can use because I’m allergic to even paper tape. After repeated uses, I do get some rashes, but it takes like weeks of multiple applications. I had some moles removed and needed stitches and I rolled up some gauze and put this over it. Worked perfectly!

I was looking for something to use over a dressing while my back incision healed... glad I found this one.was able wear it on my skin for 3 days in a row without sensitivity-- that never happens for me. So I do recommend this one.

I use these to make CGM covers for my husband's Freestyle Libre 3. These work amazing! I don't have to use Skin Tac anymore to keep the cover on his CGM and it lasts the full 14 days even with taking showers. I can also customize them by sublimating images onto them.

this is great if you have thin skin.It removes easily and does a good job holding bandage
