Skin Grip Adhesive Patches Compatible with Dexcom G7 & Stelo CGM – Waterproof & Sweatproof Cover for Continuous Glucose Monitor Sensor, Stays Secure for 10-15 Days – 20 Pack, Rainbow Pack

I've had problems with nasty skin reactions to the adhesive on a number of medical items. When I needed to wear CGMs for a month, I was concerned after reading a number of reports of similar skin reactions to the ring patches that come with the CGM. On the other hand. these Skin Grip patches get great reviews for not causing reactions, so I decided to try them.Glad I did. No reactions at all for me, and they stayed stuck through lots of hard, sweaty work, and many showers. The edges fray just a little bit towards the end, but not enough to make it look ratty or dirty.When it came time to peal the first one off, I was ready for the worst, but it came off without fuss (which I can't say for the CGM itself. Ouch!) Rubbing alcohol removed what little adhesive was left behind.The patch blended in with my skin color well enough that I did not get questions or looks when it was visible.Kinda pricey for glorified bandaids, but I agree with all the others who say they are the best. If you need CGM patches, get these.

As the title says, these are a bit pricey compared to others on the market. I've tried a bunch of other overpatches for my Dexcom G7 & haven't found any patches that stay better than these! They make the Dexcom stay on for the full 10 days about 98% of the time, even through multiple showers. Be cautious to let the patch adhesive dry for about 15-30 minutes before you start moving whatever body part you put your sensor on or the patch will begin peels about 5-7 days in!FOR PEOPLE WITH SENSITIVE SKIN:You should use with caution regardless of the fact these say they're hypoallergenic! They are latex free - I have a latex allergy & they don't irritate me. However, they give me hives within 2 - 3 days of putting on my Dexcom & patch if I'm not wearing Fluticasone Nasal Spray (it is a steroid nasal spray & reduces the allergy response to the adhesive) *AND* Tegaderm film to cover the area the patch will be over entirely. All other patches I've tried have caused this reaction but slightly worse, so, take that as you will.

I have been buying these for about a year now. I purchased these after receiving my Dexcom g7. The ones that come with the Dexcom do not work for me. I purchased these in hopes that they would do the job.The colors are vibrant, they are true to what you see in the photo. I have done the purple and the pastels. Using just the Skin grip, I can get about 4-5 days use.I choose to use these in conjunction with the Skin Tac wipes for extra adhesive. It’s those, these will stay in place for over 10 days.In this photo, I’m on day 7. They do get wrinkly once wet, but I find they don’t lift as long as I use these skin tac wipe.These are very nice quality. They are thicker and don’t typically cause me any irritation.I do find they fray very easily though.

I just switched to the G7 and ordered these for the fun design options and the durability. I have used them with my other sensors as well as my infusion sets. These offer a little bit of style along your medical journey, and they are super great quality. I hit mine all day on stuff and am surprised at how strong they hold on, even after daily showers. They stick very well, i have never had an issue with peeling. SSSSOOOO easy to put on, if you either read the instructions or just watch a simple video on it on YouTube or TikTok, it will literally be one of the easiest things you've ever done, one handed. They are the perfect size for my G7 sensor and definitely waterproof.

Skin grips have never let me down. I used the g6 ones when I wore that series and I use these on my g7 now. They stick, stay stuck, water and sweat don’t affect them, they can take abuse from bumps that would tear off the g7 normally. They are worth it.

I find these patches overall work fine, but after 2 days they ITCH!! I have used them over my G7 sensor, and my pump infusion set, and both drive me utterly crazy with the itching. Probably just a me problem but worth mentioning if anyone else has sensitive skin.As far as sticking, it does fine. Once it’s pulled up in the edge it started fraying some but only if it was messed with or picked at (because, well, itchy!). If I could leave it alone it didn’t fray.I liked that the backing came off in sections around the edge and had a separate circular section in the center so the adhesive wasn’t directly on my g7, which made changing the over patch midway through the 10 days much more doable.I never can wear these more than a day or two due to the itching, hence only three stars.

I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the Skin Grip adhesive patches for my Dexcom CGM! These patches are a game-changer, offering exceptional durability with a remarkable 2+ week wear time. They hold fast through daily activities, showers, and even intense workouts, keeping my sensor secure without any worry. By the end of their lifespan, the edges may show slight fraying, which is a small trade-off for such reliable adhesion and signals the perfect time for a fresh patch. Comfortable, discreet, and incredibly effective, Skin Grip patches combine functionality with peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a dependable solution for their Dexcom CGM!
