G7 Adhesive Patches Waterproof 20 Pack Overpatch for G7 & Stelo Flexible CGM Tape Hypoallergenic & Latex-Free Stelo Overlay Patch for 10-15 Days Long Stay Without Glue in The Center, Beige

I am not sure what everyone’s experience was/is with these G7 over patches. Mine has been great! The ordering and delivery was easy, product arrived on time thankfully. I put the patch in the same day I started a new meter. Everyone knows that the G7 lasts 10 days and then you start another one. Well other patches come off and even the patch that G7 provides is terrible. The application presses is a little hard but that is because of the placement of the meter, one handed application is hard but practice will get batter. I am an indoor office worker so not much activity other than sitting, standing up moving papers around and things like that. Shower everyday sometimes twice a day. Outside house work and sweaty at times but these patches stayed on. Never lost signal, I hit my arm a couple of times but the patch stayed the WHOLE ENTIRE TIME. There was some fraying towards the end of the 10 days but never had to worry about it coming off and loved it. Removal I would suggest using some alcohol or just taking it off. There was some adhesive left one the skin after I removed the patch and meter but nothing a good shower of even alcohol swab couldn’t remove. Next I’m going to put the meter on my back and see how that works but on the arm was fabulous!!

I'm not even kidding - these things do NOT let my Dexcom come off. They don't peel up. Yes, they look at little sad at the edges by day 10 (they all do). They do NOT come off. First removal is a little scary because - they do NOT come off. :) But if you get a cottonball with baby oil, vitamin E oil, and or alcohol and put it under the edges against the adhesive you can slowly work them off without pain. I have sensitive skin, but these aren't causing me any issues amazingly. I scrub in the shower, I sweat outside, I work out, I run into everything. I recommend these highly! WAY less expensive than "SKIN" brand. No additional adhesive needed.

I purchased this brand of patches for my Dexcom G7 sensor after having used another brand which costs more than double for about 7 months. What attracted me of this brand: the fabric like material instead of paper type stickers that come with the Dexcom sensor which gives my skin a bad reaction, and the array of colors which my other expensive brand did not offer for a while. After using two patches I have noticed that the adhesive feature is not good: while being careful during showers not to keep the patch in direct line of the water flow and carefully drying it afterwards, the patch looses it adhesive quality after about 5 days then it starts peeling on one end first, then all around. I resorted to add another patch on top of it, a bit off center to cover the part that came un-glued and so it lasted till the expiration of my sensor, at which time, trying to remove the patches was very painful as not only the the remaining glue but also a thin layer of my skin was peeled off. Not the experience I was looking for. And that's why I am returning to buy more of the SkinGrips patches in spite of their expensive price because they have strong glue all the while being very easy to remove without any pain.

I use these to cover over the dirtiness of the patch for parties or weddings. Looks good, but find it doesn’t stick as well as I’d like.

The adhesive backing allowed for easier application to my arm over the sensor, but the adhesion to skin was not very good. It started peeling off as early as day two. I had prepared the skin with an alcohol wipe and allowed to dry before inserting the sensor, so oils should not be a cause of adhesion failure. The sensor did not come loose. Just this sensor cover patch. I am searching for another patch.

I never take the time to review items, but this one really deserved it! I had three sensors fall off using just the patches that came with the device itself, and also found out while trying to keep them in that I’m allergic to medical tape, which made me very hesitant to buy a “stronger” patch for fear the adhesive would be harsher.Nope! These are SO gentle on the skin, and they could not work better. I’m on day 10 of the first one, and not even a single area has peeled up. It’s as secure as the day I placed it. I’ve worked out and showered as usual with no change. It hasn’t inhibited the sensor from communicating with my phone at all. I wish I would have spent the tiny amount of money on this product before wasting four perfectly good (and very expensive) sensors!

I absolutely love these. I am unfortunately suffering from gestational diabetes this pregnancy and was given the option of a G7 CGM. I happily took it so I could avoid jabbing my fingers several times a day. However, I found that I would consistently snag my sensor so I needed some way to make sure that didn't continue to happen. I found these patches and decided to try them despite the several reviews about their quality. I luckily have had zero issues with the longevity or durability of their stickiness. They last the intended 10 days I need them too and are fairly easy to peel off. I enjoy that they peel off the dexcom patch along with it. The colors are an added bonus and my older son has fun picking a new color when it's time for me to change the sensor. Overall I think they're good patches and work as intended, easy to use and you get quite a few for a good price.
