ExpressionMed - Adhesive Patch for Dexcom G6 (5-Pack) - Made in The USA, Waterproof, Split Backing, CGM Tape (Floral Variety Pack)

We’ve tried a couple brands, if you are active and these will be submerged, then these are the best we’ve used. When other brands are falling off about 7 days in, my wife and I actually have to use bandage remover for these after 10 days. Actually sometimes they are too sticky and my daughter dreads taking them off, but she loves the way they look.

My granddaughter loves them gave a design color no skin irration. The sickiness and durability didn't last long would rub off with her clothes.

Best overlays I bought. They stick well and 1 patch lasted the entire 10 days. I have a big problem with adhesion. Nothing stays on for more than 4 days except these patches

At first I thought I didn’t like this as much but it was my own fault because I tried putting it on with one hand and messed it up. I really like this product it helps make my Dexcom feel more secure and it looks cuter than wearing the Dexcom alone. I would just say make sure someone helps you put it on (if you are using on your arm)

$$$$$

Nice designs. Pretty colors and many to choose from.

Cute but pricey. Adhesive is ok.. but not the best

Easy to put on. Strong adhesive. Comfortable, forgot I had it on. No frayed edges. After trying what seems like a million patches this one seems to be the ONE. Finally.

II have tried buying Dexcom patches from numerous companies and small businesses over the past few years in order to try different designs or colours, and they simply don’t live up to the Dexcom patches provided by ExpressionMed. Colour: Unlike some of the brands I have used, the colour saturation on the patches remains vivid for the duration of their application, even after regularly being soaked. Reliability: I have never had a Dexcom patch from this brand come unstuck. Others, even from particularly well known alternatives, have a tendency to peel or become loose around the edges, and fail to serve their purpose. These patches stick better than the patches provided by Dexcom, better than medical tape, and better than any other patches I have tried. They are still firmly adhered after 10 days of use and I find myself using alcohol wipes or adhesive remover in order to remove them. This gives a peace of mind I don’t really have with other products anymore. Ease of application.- The backing on these patches is the size and shape of the patch only, having been cut to the exact size. This means that unlike other companies,where the patch arrives on a rectangle of paper and the whole thing must be peeled prior to application, you can apply the patch with portions of the backing still on, which massively reduces the chances of sticking the patch to itself, it becoming folded or creased, or of dropping it. Design - There are such a range of designs, and it’s the perfect way to express yourself no matter what your personality is. I used to love the narwhal patches but they don’t seem to do these for the G6 anymore, but the designs are vivid, fun, aesthetically pleasing, and very varied. Patches from one company almost look like they are covered in holes or little pores but patches from ExpressionMed don’t have this - they are even without any holes, and have the best colour saturation in my opinion. I’ve had other patches from a well known diabetes brand fade or peel even when kept dry. Value for money - With 5 patches per pack, and the superior quality I’ve found compared to all Theo hater places I’ve ever tried, these are absolutely excellent value for money and really worth purchasing The adhesive - The adhesive remains secure but does not tear or break skin upon removal. I have sensitive skin and react to a lot of medical adhesives, but find these comfortable and there is never any discomfort, redness, or any rashes. Obviously everyone’s skin is the same, so that’s something you’ll have to be mindful of with your first use, but I have been really surprised to find that a product that sticks so well doesn’t cause any skin damage. Waterproofing - As mentioned, they hold their colour perfectly well despite regular soaking and submersion such as showering, swimming etc. It does not reduce the amount of time that they stay stuck fro in my experience, ad this is again something that is different from some of the other brands I’ve tried. They dry out fairly quickly. Packaging - These patches come in a pack of 5 in easy to open packaging which arrives in an envelope via the post. There is a cardboard leaflet/flyer in the envelope that prevents them being folded or bent during transit, and it’s a much more environmentally friendly way to mail and package things - not like how sometimes you order something super small and it arrives in a ridiculously huge box with feet and feet of plastic padding or screwed up paper. I no longer buy any other brand. It took me such a long time to realise that not all patches are created equal. I was really worried that my sensors didn’t stay in, but with these patches I’ve not lost a single one.

I love the prints on these but they are hard to unpeal
