Insulin Life 25 Pack Dexcom Adhesive Patch for G4 G5 G6 CGM - Waterproof Patches

Wow! These are awesome. My son was diagnosed 1 month ago with T1D. He is a varsity football player and has practice 6 days a week. I ordered others trying to help prolong the dexcom use. The others barely lasted 1 practice. My son was running during practice and the other product came loose and his dexcom was flapping in the wind only being held on by the flexible needle. I read the review and decided on this product because it is made and marketed by a T1D family. I am so glad I did. If you are an athlete or even if your not, you NEED this product. We are so thankful we found this product. THANK YOU from a dad of a new T1D athlete!

I use a Dexcom G6 and get showers not tub baths thinking it would be better to not have the adhesive submerged in water for a length of time. BUT NO, I don't think it matters, I apply the adhesive patch, wait hours before getting it wet, but after 1 shower and avoiding taking the soapy cloth over the patch it still starts to peel away! I am completely disappointed with the product. Even the edges where you need to touch it to apply don't adhere once you have just barely touched it. I had no lotion or oil on my hands nor my skin. I would not waste my money on this product nor recommend it for purchase. Also the Dexcom stays attached for 10 days at a time but the patches only last a few days at most, then need replaced, so while becoming looser n looser as you shower, that could then cause you to accidentally pull the Dexcom off before your 10 days are up, especially when trying to replace a patch. That's bad because insurances aren't going to replace them early! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT, save your money!!

These were bought to go over my pump infusion spot and if I needed extra backing for my continuous glucose sensor. The hole in this patch is too long to use for my infusion sets. The width would work but I would have to go over my spot twice to get good coverage. I buy extra patches because I am rough on my pump and it ends up dropping or sliding off my belt and it ends up pulling my site out if I don't keep something stronger on it. The adhesive also seems to have a short life because after 3 days (on my sensor) it is pulling up off my skin and I then have to try to tape it down again but it usually ends up pulling off anyway.

It definitely extends the life of the sensor. One patch lasts me just under a week, with daily showers and every couple days hot tub use. It did not leave a rash when I used it on the back of my arm. I've tried in on my stomach and my shoulderblade and it leaves a rash there.

extends the life of my CGM by at least 4-5 days. I put this on once my dexcom sticker starts to peel... and it gives me a bit more time to enjoy my CGM before starting another one. It gets a little itchy at the end of it's life, but that could be just my sensitive skin. Will purchase again. Thanks!

Thank God for these. They work perfectly. My eleven-year-old daughter is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and is very active and these help tremendously.

After just a few days they begin to lift and i use an adhesive on my skin and followed all the instructions. They're just ok in my opinion.

Holds up well with my almost 3 year old. We get more than a week out of it which I’m very happy with. Strongly recommend.

I self fund Dexcom G5 and it is £50.00 if we change sensors every 7 days, So we are always looking for tapes to keep the sensor on for longer. I was skeptical as to the use of this tape but, this is so far the best I have ever used, I hot tub at least twice a day at 37-40 degree and this tape after 12 days has not budged at all, I use Opsite flexitape on the edges of this product. but after 12 days of living and sweating and hot tubbing etc. 5 stars and I would not hesitate on recommending this to anyone.

Very poor adhesion to me but stuck like glue to the Dex's tape. Started peeling off within 48 hours and took the Dex with it. So much for trying to extend the sensor life beyond a week. Very expensive trial as I bought in bulk and threw most of them away. Have reverted back to the version from America which sticks for a week.Unfortunately just like first aid plasters, everyone reacts differently to different brands.

Excellent. Stayed stuck for two weeks and only changed it because it was a bit grubby. I shall carry on using these.

wife says she likes them and give her a longer use for sensor.

So far, my G5 sensors are lasting 21 Days with these to hold them in place.

Sadly they don't stick aswell as I thought they would. I think we will go back to flexifix and scissors.

perfect

Very good fit and very good adhesive

These are very good patches. I have had one on for almost a week and no sign of it coming off...Great product if you want to extend the use of your sensor.

Really great, lasted two weeks and you can easily take it off without taking the CGM off. Very happy customer!

Ist für den Preis zu empfehlen. Qualtiät so lala, kein echtes Rocktape, hält cirka eine Woche. Also ich trage den Dexcom Sensor immer eine Woche ohne was, wenn der Kleber anfängt sich zu lösen, dann nutze ich diese Tapes und verlängere die Haltbar damit um eine weitere Woche. Mache auch Sport damit. Gibt ja in Hautfarbe leider auch keine Alternative...

Cerotti ben ritagliati senza sbavature, di dimensione ovale molto grande. Una volta applicati però tendono a sollevarsi un po' sulla parte dei bordi.Onestamente li speravo un po' meglio, sono del tipo non resistente all'acqua (diciamo comparabili ai Rock Tape normali). Preferisco prendere i Rock Tape H2O che mi durano più tempo applicati.

ich habe mir das Produkt gekauft und kann folgendes sagen:- die farbe passt vom Ton her zu meiner haut - für alle europäer die es unauffällig mögen sehr gut - die klassische pflaster farbe halt- es hält sehr gut - bei mir locker 3 wochen- mein Tipp: Direkt beim auftragen des G5 das Pflaster mit ankleben, so hat man den besten halt! Eine andere Kommentatorin schrieb, dass sie das PFlaster erst drauf macht, wenn sich der eigntliche kleber vom G5 löst - dies ist meiner Meinung nach keine gute lösung, da es dann schon unter dem Fplaster (aufgrund des Lochs in der mitte) rumwabbelt.

I cerotti applicati sulla pelle si notano poco grazie al loro color pelle, ma non resistono all'acqua, vanno cambiati ogni due docce. Forse sono anche un po' grandi come dimensione, noi tagliamo un mezzo centimetro sul bordo altrimenti sono davvero grandi

Der vorgestanzte Sicherheitsaufkleber für das DEXCOM CGM System ist von der Aussenform und der Klebekraft sehr gut.Meiner Meinung ist leider das innere Loch etwas zu groß ausgefallen.Es überklebt zwar den Aufkleber vom DEXCOM aber nicht den darauf befestigten Transmitter.Ich trage das DEXCM CGM an der Rückseite vom Oberarm.Nachdem ich den Aufkleber zum ersten Mal getestet hatte, ist mir beim Duschen gleich der Transmitter rausgegangen.Meiner Meinung müsste das innere Loch 15 x 25 mm groß sein, dann würde durch den Aufkleber auch der Transmitter besser geschützt sein.Würde das geändert werden, dann würde ich diese Aufkleber auch noch mal kaufen.Bis dahin bleibt mir nichts weiter übrig, als das Kyno tape weiter, wie bisher selber auszuschneiden.
