ExpressionMedCGM Adhesive Patches for Dexcom G7 and Stelo (5 Pack) - USA Made, Waterproof, Sweatproof, Long-Lasting Hold, FSA/HSA Eligible (Dreamy Escapes Variety Pack)

Definitely do not use if have adhesive allergy. Even with using goo gone for skin was almost impossible to get off. So essentially it does its job Definitely sticks on for the 10 days lol

I purchased the Expressionmed and the Glucomart brands to compare. The 2 brands had similar designs. so to make it as fair as possible i purchased the stars/universe designs of both so they had similar color and design. I found that the expressionmed is a more papery patch. it is rougher and wrinkles once it gets wet and dries. The patch did stay the entire 10 days with some lifting on the outside as well as wrinkling near the CGM. I prepped my skin by washing with a mild soap and using alcohol on a cotton ball and allowed to air dry. i paired both patches with the "Deck my diabetes" Gripshield reusable CGM Armor Protection in the glow green color. as my arm is drying I peel off the backing of the patch in the inside leaving only the tails on each end, I insert the shield through the hole, inside to outside and lightly press the shield onto the patch. Once my CGM is inserted i first use the over patch in the Dexcom 7 box, then I can apply the CGM protective shield with the decorative over patch ensuring that my CGM is protected for the entire use. Glucomart is a silkier patch, I was worried about it initially but it conforms better to your skin and does not wrinkle like the ExpressionMed patches. I experienced no rashing, hives or breakouts with either patch and I have sensitive skin and a latex allergy. I swim a lot and preping my CGM the way i do has been very beneficial to staying on the entire 10 days without having to change patches. If you do need to change your over patch using the protective shield allows you to pull off the top over patch without jeopardizing the smaller over patch.All in all ExpressionMed patches get a 6/10 due to quality and functionThe Glucomart patches 10/10and the Gripshield Armor 10/10hope this helps.

ExpressionMed is the best. Their designs are super cute and they adhere and stay put SO well (even better with skin tac) and doesn’t budge for the 10 days. Pants rubbing against it doesn’t make it move or lose adhesive so they’re super durable!! For a pack of 5, 15 bucks… each one lasts 10 days; 15 bucks for just shy of two months? I’m willing to pay that much for valueThey’re worth it in my opinion

Very cool looking and keeps my G7 in place. I like that extra security.Used one last night for the first time. The backing paper is much harder to get off then other brands and ended up wasting one. Disappointing.

They’re pretty and stuff, but they are not waterproof and I came allergic to the heat of the tape. I wish they were made diabetic tape allergy friendly.
