SIMPATCH Universal Adhesive Patch, Black, 25-Pack, CGM Tape | Waterproof Adhesive

I have an 11 yr old child with type 1 diabetes. Recently he had begun to break out from every adhesive that came in contact with his body. He wears a continuous glucose monitor sensor (CGM) as well as an insulin pump, which both use adhesives to keep the equipment attached for their specified amount of time. We were having to change out his equipment every couple of days and had not made it the full 7 days for his sensor because the rashes would develop so quickly. His poor skin was just broken out horribly and it would take weeks to heal, limiting his options on places to attach his diabetic equipment. Numerous doctors told us to try a variety of products, none of which helped in any way. We saw an allergist, a dermotologist - no luck. I just happened to come across Simpatch and after reading the reviews of people with similar issues, I decided to try it. Being a little skeptical at first, we applied the Simpatch and to my amazement, we made it the full 7 days for the first time in 7 months. We had minor peeling around the edges, but my son had been in a swimming pool most of the day every day that week, but the Simpatch never wavered... it protected his sensor which was the important thing. It applied very easily and removed easily as well. I was so thrilled to see that after taking the Simpatch off, his skin was clear. He did have a slight rash under the sensor itself because of the adhesive attached to the sensor. I wanted to see the performance for at least another week, so we changed out his sensor (CGM) and applied the Simpatch. We made sure to rub the edges a little better this time to prevent the edge peeling at it did great, even with all the swimming, the Simpatch didn't peel on the edges. We made it another 7 days! I was exstatic to see that after peeling off the Simpatch, there was absolutely nothing on my son's skin. Not even under the sensor where the other adhesive had bothered him for so long. I cannot even express how happy I am that I stumbled across this product. If you are having similar issues with adhesives, whether it be dexcom, omnipod, or the medtronic guardian like we use, or for any other reason... just give it a try and see for yourself! We got the blue, but I like that there are 4 color choices.

I used it for the first time about 6 days ago for my Medtronic Guardian CGM. The Simpatch was something I purchased because I felt like the Medtronic Oval Tape wasn't good enough. It wasn't keeping the CGM properly adhered to my body and I kept having issues with the CGM updating, disconnecting and I wasn't getting the promised 6 day use of the sensors! Those sensors are expensive and I became frustrated that the product Medtronic was selling wasn't good. I ran into your product on Amazon and figured I would eliminate all variables prior to making that decision and figured I would try the Simpatch patch to see if I could get the most out of my sensors. Simpatch has already completely changed my feelings about the Guardian CGM. The CGM is now properly adhered to my skin! It doesn't have a "plastic wrap" feeling that the manufactured Oval Tape had. It is simply more comfortable than any other product I've used for the Guardian CGM. It's flexible, feels more natural and it doesn't feel like the slightest bump, bend or slip may disconnect the sensor. The Simpatch was VERY simple to apply as sometimes in using other tapes or adhesives (depending on body location) I would need some help from my Wife. The adhesive on Simpatch is effect and keeps the sensor on your skin without disrupting it's signal to my pump. It was easy to take off and left less residue on my sensor than the original manufacturer's oval tape. I exercise doing HIIT training every night, shower every night, have used it in the pool and all of those activities rendered no issues-the Simpatch is leaps and bounds better than other products! The edge of the Simpatch hasn't worn down or frayed away from my skin after 6 days! The Simpatch has changed my outlook on wearing the CGM and made the marriage between the my CGM and pump very effective! THANK YOU to Simpatch for an awesome and affordable product!

Finally! I have found a dressing that will cover my estrogen patches and stay on, clean, and intact, for a week! These are perfect and I am so grateful that I found them. Will be buying them again for sure!

I'm new to using such things as a Simpatch -- I've only recently been given a CGM (Continuous Glucose Meter). But the tape that came with it failed within 3 to 4 hours of wearing it. So I did a little research and found a lot of favorable reviews about Simpatch. So I ordered them to give them a try. First, they gave me different ones from what I ordered -- I ordered the oblong ones that have a circle in the middle that has no adhesive. Instead I was sent the oblong with all adhesive, even in the center. Because I couldn't wait for a return/resend, I decided to just use them anyway. That was a good call! These actually work fantastically! I live in California, where we're seeing record breaking heatwaves, and I have no A/C... so, sweat is a factor. But not for these patches! They're still holding strong! I have a 7 day sensor and I'm on day 3, so I fully expect these to go the distance. If not, I'll try a little liquid adhesive to see if I can get a little more time out of it. But I'm optimistic based on performance so far. As of right now I would highly recommend these, but beware when ordering... you might not get the exact version you ordered. Update: It is now day 7 and the Simpatch is still doing quite well! With the exception of a tiny edge losing stickiness, the patch has stayed attached perfectly throughout the sensor's 7 day lifespan. I highly recommend these for 7 day sensors. If you have a 10 or 14 day sensor, your miles may vary.

Being a Type 1 Diabetic for over the past 37 years, I can attest that there isn’t much that I get excited about with shots and finger sticks. That being said, I have been an insulin pump user since 1998. I have recently started using the Medtronic 670G with the Guardian sensor. Prior to my new pump, I had the Animas Vibe with the Dexcom G4. Let me tell you, I used everything under the sun to make the Dexcom G4 adhere to my body. The adhesive they provided was terrible, it would begin to peel on the 3rd day. I seriously got to the point that I didn’t even use the Dexcom G4 because I wasted too many dollars for a product that could not adhere to my body. I’m sure I could have done more research, but I was just done! My save in grace! 1. When I was informed that Animas was no longer going to manufacture their insulin pumps and I was having to switch to Medtronic, I finally felt a sigh of relief. My very first insulin pump was a Medtronic pump. I read up on Medtronic’s newest pump and their Guardian sensor and a smile came to my face. My best friend since childhood, who too is a Type 1 Diabetic, and has been on the Medtronic 670G with the Guardian CGM for over 1-1/2yr, told me about Simpatch. She told me how well their product adhered to her body and she also informed me of their impeccable customer service. 2. Upon using the Simpatch for my very first time, it was very easy to apply. I first wiped the area I was injecting the Guardian CGM sensor with one SkinPrep pad. Then I placed the Simpatch over the Guardian CGM and voila, it adhered perfectly. (See pictures provided - the patch is adhered to my right leg) 3. The Simpatch “NEVER” lifted on the edges, not even when I reached the 7th day of my sensor to be changed. Let me also add, I workout at minimum 3 days per week. I run, bicycle and weight train, oh and living in Florida with 90 – 100 degree temps, sweating is inevitable. That ALL being said, the Simpatch “NEVER” failed! 4. Changing out the Simpatch is as easy as applying. Removing the old Simpatch, I lifted lightly on the edges and it came off with ease. My skin never felt like it was peeling off with the Simpatch, unlike it did when I used the original adhesive provided by Medtronic. If you need, you can use an adhesive remover wipe (like Reliamed or Unisolve) as you are removing the Simpatch. To the owner of Simpatch, James Duffy, who so nicely sent an e-mail message thanking me for my purchase, I don’t know how else to describe your product other than…AMAZING!!! I LOVE IT!!! I love it so much that I am going to buy the other colors of purple and blue you have available. I wish you would make more colors, because in all honesty, I like showing it off. Yes, I find the Simpatch makes my Guardian sensor look hip. It makes me proud to show that I am a Type 1 Diabetic that is fighting the fight and refuses to ever quit! THANK YOU Simpatch and mostly, THANK YOU JAMES DUFFY!!!

I have been using the Medtronics Guardian Sensor and patches that come with it. You would think that as well as the infusion sets hold that they could figure out adhesives, but this is for another soap box. After going through several sensors in just days, I was in desperate need of something better. I do still use one of the patches that come with the sensor, just for the cutout and how it fits around the sensor inserted portion before attaching the transmitter. The Simpatch is a much better solution for the final cover. I also tried tergaderm which does not even come close. My initial complaint is that when pealing the backing off the patch there are no pull tabs to make this easy, I end up touching the sticky side. I have good feeling in my fingers, but for those that don't, this could be difficult. The patch goes on rather easy and covers the entire sensor and transmitter well. I have not had any issues with drying after showering and though i have not tried swimming yet, I did spend a long time wet while pressure washing the house and deck. After about 4-5 days the edges start to peel just a little. I had started trimming them as they do to keep them from snagging on clothing. As far as irritation and rashes from wearing them, I have had no problems, they feel very much like a good bandage and seem to breathe. They will pull hair when you take them off. Overall, I have recommended these to several people I know that wear CGMs. I have shown them to a couple doctors and suggested they give them a try. I like these and will be purchasing more as I run out. Pic attached is the beginning of 4th day wearing

First of all, take everything I say with a grain of salt. As a disclaimer, I am more active than the average diabetic. I work on a farm during the week and kayak, backpack, camp, ski, snowmobile, and so much more on the weekends. I am in constant range of motion almost 80-90% of the day everyday, and sweating almost the whole time too. This patch, simply put, is not perfect. The material is high quality like a nice fabric bandaid and gives acceptional stretch, unlike the vinyl “donut” stickers you get with your guardian sensors. However, they still seem too peel off after 3 days, although this is the same amount of time the Medtronic patches give me the simpatch does hold the sensor on better and I do notice less movement and the insertion site is less sensitive after I remove the sensor. I am allergic to most adhesives and the Medtronic patches will make my skin blister and dry out. The simpatch has a nice adhesive that my skin is less likely to react to, but occasionally it does happen. The simpatch is fairly water resistant but in no means waterproof. The edges do peel up after a good swim. Pictured below, I have a patch I had been wearing on my arm for 3 days. I did not go swimming during the time, and only showered twice while wearing it. The weather outside was about 98° and I worked outside all day one of the days and got fairly sweaty. Overall if I lived an average lifestyle and received the same results, this patch would have gotten a two star review, conversely if I didn’t move around as often this patch would work better and so I overall DO RECOMMEND every diabetic with a guardian sensor buy these patches

Great for CGMs that don't come with their own patches. Sticks like a bill collector and is impervious to the strongest mafia enforcers I've seen. I wouldn't go wreck-diving in it, but it survives a shower quite well. Note: Clean the skin with alcohol after use to remove any residual adhesive.

No es más que un gran esparadrapo recortado. El precio por el producto es un auténtico abuso. Es un simple esparadrapo enorme.

Geniale Teile. Ich habe eine Pflaster Allergy und vertrage selten irgendwelche Klebstoffe. Ich habe Null Reaktionen (kein Brennen, kein Jucken, etc.). Das Pflaster ist recht groß und rund gehalten. Dadurch passt sie prima in die Handfläche und man kann das Pflaster alleine aufkleben. Gott sei Dank ist die Abziehfolie mit Schlitzen. Erleichtert das abziehen. Ich nutze sie zum Schutz meiner Libre 2 Sensoren und hab bisher mit einer Folie gearbeitet. Die sieht aber sehr schnell schmuddelig aus und lässt sich nicht unfallfrei wieder vom Sensor pulen. Das klappt hier ganz gut mit etwas Fingerspitzengefühl.

Tried two makers now. Patchebetes and this simpatch. This one is much better. Less fraying.. Sticks more with less peeling at edges. Both seem to start losing full effect after a week so i have changed them in the middle of the libre cycle. But only when i have lots of athletic activity. Sitting around house and showering they should last 2 weeks. Any patch is better than no patch. The libre sensor pops off easy to easily. Not one has fallen off with the patch over it.. 10 sensors deep now.

Désolé, mais vu l'aspect il me semble qu'il a trainé trop dans le fond du tiroir. En plus toujours pas de traces de lot de fabrication ni de dates de péremption En tout cas la qualité n'y est pas ou plus, Je suppose qu'il a été exposé à la chaleur La séparation entre les patchs de protection-colle très mal exécuté. Et je dirais même que la surface totale a été réduit Vraiment déçu !!
