Waterproof Adhesive Patches for Sensor, Compatible with Freestyle Libre, Medtronic, t:Slim and More, 20 Count - (Rainbow Pack)

I just started using the Freestyle Libre sensors and I went through 4 of them in about a week. Two didn't activate correctly and the other two fell off within half an hour of going outside. I don't sweat much and I wasn't sweating those two times so it had to have been the adhesive giving way. One lasted 3 days and the other only 4.With the patchabetes I've had my first sensor stay in for 14 days. I've accidentally scraped it against a couple of things (book case, door jamb) and I've been outdoors in 115 degree heat with it. I've showered with it and I've even woken up several times during the night to find myself scratching at it (the sensor, not the patch)I will buy these again when needed and would recommend them to anyone who wears a sensor. They stick well and you don't even have to think about them once they're on.

Constantly replacing because it would roll up not stay stuck. Went through 2 different packages so it was just not a bad package. Don't waste your money

did not work- came off in shower. didn't stay on even 2 days. Threw away

Yep I'm a fashion diva with diabetes!...rocking the Freestyle Libre! It's summer...swimsuit weather...sleeveless shirt weather, so I had to find something other than the skintone patches, which are really fine if you're not exposing your upper arms. These patches seem to be doing a great job blending in with whatever I've been wearing. I teach aqua aerobics and aqua zumba, and they stay in place, the edges are clean. Best of all, people have stopped exclaiming "OMG, what did you do tyo your arm?" LOL!

I actually cut these to be a little smaller so they don't cover as much skin just as a preference. I've tried other patches such as FixiC - waterproof adhesive and one other brand that was more oval than round. So far these are the only ones that don't irritate my skin and make me itch like crazy.In fact the oval ones (wish I could remember the brand) had me itching for a week even after I took it off when it started itching. So I love these from a irritation stand-point.Unfortunately there isn't a adhesive free area for the Libre I wear, so it sticks straight to my skin AND the Libre. Which means once the patch starts to fray and wear as it approaches 14 days it's very hard to take it off and replace it without also pulling the Libre out.I shower every morning and it only usually starts to peel a little or fray (because I cut it to a smaller shape) after about 12 days. Since I combine Skin Tac with patching it is not a big deal to have the patch come off a couple days before the Libre expires as the Skin Tac will last for almost a week without the patch over top. In fact I like that I can take the patch off a couple days earlier anyway.I've hacked it to leave some of the backing in the middle so it doesn't stick to my sensor but with cutting it smaller and hacking the backing putting a new patch on can take a few minutes vs a few seconds.I'll probably keep buying these because they don't make me itch and I already itch around the Libre penetration point after a few days (and I apply correctly with the alcohol swab etc) so anything that remove the itch even if it falls short a couple days is well worth my cost of living.

These were a little more expensive than the plain sensor patches but they do have color - sounded good so I ordered. On arrival, the patches backing is not scored - one has to pull on the patch to stretch it which tears the backing paper so it can be removed for patch application. It was odd but worked so I continued. Next, I noticed that the patches do NOT have a non sticky spot for the sensor. I often fail to center the others completely which results in a little sticking to the sensor but these are completely stuck. This becomes a problem when the patch starts coming loose after only 3 days - loose from my skin that is - it still stuck ot the sensor pretty well which made it a little more difficult to remove by myself to make room for a new one.I do not think I'll be buying these again.

Works great over my sensor and pretty easy to remove . We were on vacation and I was in the pool for a lot of the time and didn’t worry about putting on sun screen or being in the pool for long periods of time.

I use these to cover my FreeStyle Libre 2 badge. I just replaced it 3 days ago and the patch is already half peeled up. The glue should last longer. I'm already more than half way through this pack of patches. I will say they start to peel on average 3 to 4 days after application. I have used other patches (skin tone ones) from another maker and those lasted the entire 2 weeks for my sensor, even with swimming and showers. I sneeze and they peel off without touching. I have even gone the route of using SkinTac and the patches maybe only last an extra day before starting to peel. The glue is junk. And just cause I wanted a cool color, in this case blue, instead of skin tone or black, I paid $25 for 20 patches, when you can get 30 skin tone colored ones for $18, or 25 black ones for $20. I won't be buying this brand again.

These have already been a godsend in this hot summer for me. I tend to get into stuff, and have already ripped a couple of sensors out by accident doing more physical things. But ever since I have been putting one of these over my sensor routinely, I have yet to lose one. They do fray a bit on the edges, but the adhesion is great, lasting for a full two week period for me. I do lay a paper covering over the sensor to protect it in case I do have to remove the patch, but I haven't had one come away on me yet. They have the added benefit that they don't bother my usually quite sensitive skin that much, which is surprising as I even used to have a hard time with infusion sites. I will be buying more of these for sure. And I love the vivid colours. They're so much fun. It makes the conversations that inevitably come up with people a bit brighter... And it gives me peace of mind if some rando wants to poke my arm and ask me what my sensor is.

These patches do not hold up in anyway, I put on a shirt with long sleeves and it immediately rolled up off my skin.It claims to cover the senior for 14 days, mine couldn’t even last a night.

Not sticky enough

The first time I bought these, I loved them. Immediately, the sensor felt more secure. I wouldn't go without having a patch on ever.I have now bought five packs, and as time has gone on, I feel like the adhesive has been changing. The first pack lasted for two weeks, with some raising at the edges, but trimming kept everything in place and working well. The patches have been staying on for shorter and shorter periods. Now, on the fifth pack, the patches have only stayed on for an average of two days. Even more alarming, the adhesive is now making me itchy and giving me blisters. I'm going to have to find another solution.

I have tried other brands off Amazon and more expensive too. I just ordered another pack for my Freestyle sensor. They stay on anywhere from a week to the 14 days. They don't irritate my skin either. Look good. Only reason I state a week to 14 days depends on how long one showers or uses shower gels. Some shower gels will loosen the patch a bit if not careful. The reader still scans even though I don't cut a hole in the middle. I have tried patches that have the hold cut out and they don't last as long as these do on the arm.
