20 Pack G7 Adhesive Patches Waterproof Flexible & Breathable Full Stelo Covers,Hypoallergenic & Latex-Free,Skin-Friendly Overpatches for 10-15 Days,Dark Colors

These adhesive patches are Terrific. I decided to wear it for 10 days with my Dexcom 7 device before I post and reviewed it. I had no problem showering, or worrying about it sliding off. Now the first week when I wore the patch, I accidentally hit the Dexcom with my strap as I was removing clothing. While the patch was still in tact, the Dexcom device loosened from my arm so I removed it. That incident happened on day 9. So I was not too concern because in the morning, I had to put the new Dexcom in anyway. So for ladies who where straps a lot rather bras, spaghetti strap shirts or dresses, etc. I learn the back of the arm for my Dexcom works best for me-unless you use your stomach. It's at the back of my arm in the photos connected to this review. Now I must admit, removing was a bit of a struggle. I have two photos here after I removed the patch. It was a little pinch feeling but once I got some vaseline, it was not too bad. I recommend vaseline, alcohol, soap, or lotion to remove the patch. Now after about a day or so, I still had a little residual left on my arm despite using the vaseline. After showering for the second time, it came off. The patches come in different colors and it does not irritate my skin as the last patches I used. The material is cotton. Too some people it may feel like a big band-aid, but to each it's own. These are now my go to patches with my Dexcom 7 device.

Arrived quickly. works well. Wild colors. Covers my Dexcom G7 CGM well.holds up well to showers

I left a review for this product already but apparently it wasn't good enough so it's been deleted. Including the pictures that I uploaded to go with it. So... here goes again.The first one of these particular patches that I used seemed to be great. Stuck better than I expected it to, didn't really make it through my first shower with it though. On to the next patch... This one didn't stick at all. I got frustrated and didn't bother with another one until I started a new sensor. And here's where the problems started. It stuck to my skin so "good" that when the fraying of the edges began and the edges started to peel (just the tiniest bit) my skin started to deteriorate. It hurt so much that within 3 days of having it on I couldn't stand it anymore and I had to have my husband, very carefully, remove it. When he did, the outside edges took skin with it. And the rest was red and irritated pretty bad. It's almost been a week since then and I still have scabs and irritated skin. It feels like a really deep bruise. If you have even the slightest skin sensitivity, DO NOT use these patches. Diabetic skin was definitely not taken into account when this product was designed. Save yourself the trouble. Don't put yourself through the pain or discomfort that these patches will definitely cause you.

I was using the patch that came with my dexcom and tegraderm to keep my sensors in place but because I was unable to put tegraderm on the entire sensor I would catch it on the car getting in and out of the car and it would tare the sensor off my arm. With this patch I have not torn one off. The only thing I have notice is the green patches do not stay in place, so I'm not sure what happened there.

Love the various colors in the variety pack. I can choose the color I am feeling for the week. LOLThe first one made my skin break out a little. But not as another brand I had tried. I decided to try one more. There has been no other problem with them.The edges start to fray after a few days of wearing them. But not badly and they last the whole 10 days of the sensor use.I tried wearing them on the back of my arms like Dexcom recommends for the G7. It was hard for me to use the G7 there. So I went back to using it on my stomach like the G6. It is much easier putting these patches on my stomach and the sensor works fine for me there.

Pros: its larger surface area helps it adhere better, and the fact that it covers a sensor helps reduce it, catching on clothing and other items. Which was a problem for me.Cons: was clearly designed by someone who’s doesn’t use them, has never met a diabetic, doesn’t understand how it used. For want of 1 square inch of wax paper they made this a nightmare to apply. Lacking the tabs that the Dexcon overpatch has, and not understanding that it is applied to an area you can’t really see, makes what should be a 20 second application, a 20 minute test of dexterity.

These work great. Mine kept getting knocked out when I was using the ones with the center cut out.

Thank you for my purchase order thank you again.
