Lexcam Dexcom G6 Over Patches Waterproof 20 Pack, Hypoallergenic CGM Cover

Only wore for one day so far, but these patches are nice and big comfortable. And the coolest part is when you put them on, they peel off in a circular motion so you don't accidentally pull up the sticker. I'll update my review later after the full 15 days to see if it lasts. I'm using with dexcom G7 and I'm going to type 1 diabetic for reference

I started using a Stelo glucose monitor a year ago, and found it to be very helpful in modifying my eating. However, I was very frustrated when replacing the sensor because of the original over patches, which are applied to secure the sensor. Those patches were hard to remove--even with adhesive remover; they often detached from the edge of the sensor, which made that hard to remove. Out of desperation I tried these over patches--and what a difference! They peels off easily, but do stick tight to the sensor so comes off with it. Now I can do a sensor change in about 4 minutes. A bonus--they are almost clear and less noticeable. I highly recommend these!!

I have good luck with these. They don’t irritate my skin. They DO stick really well. The last sensor I removed had one of these on it. I will say that I was in a hurry when I put it on and didn’t trim my tummy before I applied the sensor and this over patch. Oh boy. That was painful to remove. Lol. But that’s a good thing. I do tech service for a company that makes adhesives/glues. So I should know better than to apply an adhesive patch (that can last for 10 days on human skin) over hair. I usually trim (and I’m not very hairy) before I apply these. And normally they peel off - taking a little effort, with no pain and no damage to the skin. But fair warning! They will pull hair that is longer than about 1/4 inch (5 or 6 mm). I’ve had no problem with them causing irritation. They stick well. They are easy to apply (they do include instructions - if you don’t read them and don’t get it right, that is YOUR problem. Don’t write a bad review because you don’t read.) I will continue to order these. Now, one thing I know from having done tech service in adhesives for 25 years is that not everyone reacts to things the same way. That is NOT the fault of the patch manufacturer. If your skin develops a rash when it comes into contact with this adhesive, that is unfortunate, but NOT anyone’s fault. It doesn’t mean this is a bad product. It just means it isn’t the right product for you. For all the people claiming it’s a poorly designed product, that’s like someone who is allergic to peanuts saying that peanuts are poison. No, they aren’t. That’s just the way things are. Sadly, no company can figure out what will work for every single person on the planet. They have to do the best they can to make a product that bonds well to most people’s skin, and doesn’t irritate or harm most people’s skin. If you aren’t “most people,” that is an unfortunate circumstance, but at the end of the day, it is YOUR problem and not anyone else’s. Don’t be so ego-centric to rant over what a “horrible” product it is and maybe keep someone (like myself) from being able to use these helpful over-patches. Just say they didn’t work for you, state why, and move on. But if you are like me, and probably 90% or more of the rest of the population, these are a great over-patch that does exactly what it claims it does.

-first one tried worked great and had zero issues; lasted entire 15 days with no problems -second one had some issues, not staying on but ripping by the sensors pad and it would bubble up and tear on sides; next one did the same thing -but never came off, protects extremely well and still way better than what comes with the sensors -so easy to put on and get in place and really don't notice they are there at all -they get VERY itchy though to the point you want to rip it off sometimes, that is becoming a problem and only reason didn't give 5 stars. Could just be my skin perhaps though -overall they are excellent and should work extremely well for many -I leave them on until around 8-10 days then put the Dexcom shipped on on top to keep it from pulling away by the sensor as it has been and that works great so far -hate that the glue leaves that sticky colored spot but is what it is -definitely would recommend though take notice if they itch a lot might need to try another brand. Am only on my 4th one and 50% of the time the itching was bad but got through it

My son & I both use these - we love them, and it's all we buy. He's rougher on his, but they typically last the full 10 days. I love that they're clear, and haven't had any issues with reaction on my skin from them.

They work well but are a pain to get off. I tried adhesive remover but it will only work in little spots at a time. They stick well though. Made my 15 day sensor last the full 15 days

Great item at a great price thanks Amazon

I use these for both my CGMs and my cannulas for my insulin pump. They do the job VERY well - no more cannulas pulling out of my belly, or CGMs getting knocked off! They're relatively easy to peel off when it's time to change my attachments, but very secure until I remove them myself. It can be a bit like taking off a strong bandaid. However, they do tend to create and then leave behind on my skin a sticky dirt ring along the outside of the patch from the adhesive, and it doesn't come off with an alcohol wipe. I have to scrub pretty hard in the shower with a rough loofah to get it off.
