Dexcom G7 Adhesive Patches - 20-Pack Waterproof & Breathable Dexcom G7 Overpatches with Hardshell Cover, Multi-Layer Protection for 10+ Days, Premium Hinged Tin (Tan)

These are very sturdy, they don’t peel off, they last the full 10 days on my G7. I feel more comfortable with this overpatch as it seems to keep the CGM in place especially when your getting dressed and undressed, I no longer catch the CGM. Great product. The overpatch in the picture is after 5 days and it’s still sticking ver well. There is a bit of fraying on the edges but it’s not peeling off at all.

I recently upgraded to the Dexcom G7 from the G6 and at first was thrilled they came with their own overpatch. That was short lived when I had to change my sensor for the first time and the adhesive proceeded to rip off my skin and/or severely irritate it. It was so bad I thought I was going to have to go back to the G6, but I had to make the G7 work for at least 2 months until I could refill my G6 again through my mail order pharmacy. A friend of mine suggested a patch similar to this one so I went to Amazon to find some to try. I decided on these because of the design as well as the protective shell that fits over my G7 before I apply the overpatch. I am glad I did! Recently on vacation we swam a lot and applied a lot of sunscreen… all things that I knew would weaken the overpatch early. With the protective shell, I was able to swap out overpatches early with no issue! I suspect without it, the sensor may have stuck to the overpatch and possibly have been removed early. Maybe not though, because even the adhesive on that tiny G7 sensor is rough stuff. I have a hard time getting it off. Regardless, these patches have worked out great! They easily last the full 10 days under normal circumstances. Lots of swimming and sunblock will weaken them. Just a friendly reminder… these will leave tan lines. 😂 Obviously that’s not a complaint, just more of a warning to consider when you are placing yours.

good Product, Easy to use,

Very good patches! I live in an urban area and use public transit where I’m bumping into things a lot. These patches hold up most of the time. I have had a few slowly get peeled off while sleeping here and there, but they do the job most of the time. They do leave behind a residue after, but Goo Gone clears that up.

Finally I found a overpatch I love there’s only one thing I would love to suggest to them.. if you look at my Omni pod there they leave a lil tab so it’s super easy to pull the paper off to stick it on! If you could do that these would be perfect! You see I’m older with arthritis and peeling the corners off after you have the middle stuck on is not so easy! But great product! I’m coming back to edit this to let them know that I wish they would just put a cut out in the middle so that it wouldn’t be sticky because it seems like the bumper is causing lots of Bluetooth loss issues and that is a pain in the butt. Thanks.
