a great alternative to the wipes, goes further with no waste.

I have very delicate skin and the adhesive that Dexcom uses on the G7 Sensor and the included squarish over patch aren’t strong enough to ensure that my CGM Sensor stays in place for the full 10 days. After thoroughly cleaning the area with soap and water in the location I plan to place my Dexcom G7 Sensor, I clean the area again with an alcohol wipes. After completing the cleaning process, I use one Smith and Nephew Skin Prep wipe in the same area and let it dry. I then lightly use Skin Tac liquid adhesive where the G7 Sensor will be inserted. You must wait for the Skin Tac to dry to a tacky consistency on your skin and a little Skin Tac goes a long way. The bottle I have in the photo is about half empty and I have been using it for almost three years. I deploy the G7 sensor on top of the Skin Tac Adhesive and follow Dexcom’s instructions given to ensure maximum adhesion of the Sensor and then follow their directions for applying the includes G7 over patch. Unfortunately, even with using skin prep and Skin Tac prior to deploying my Dexcom G7 Sensor and their over patxh, the adhesives uses by Dexcom on both their G7 sensor and over patch won’t keep either attached for more than 3 to 4 days before falling off. None of the CGM Sensors stay in place for the required length of time due to the adhesives becoming damp for a variety of reasons like sweating due to the summer heat and high humidity, sweating heavily due to frustrating “hot flashes”, taking daily showers or baths using either hot or cold water and any type of soap, swimming in a pool or sweating due to exercise. The Dexcom adhesives on the G7/G6 Sensors amd over patches are in no way waterproof or water resistant. The Libre CGM system that also uses a sensor and over patch has the exact same problem but is harder to use due to how extremely small nature of their CGM products aren’t waterproof or water resistant either. Even though you follow the directions for drying the sensor and patch immediately after getting it wet, the sensor and over patch fall off within a few hours afterwards which is always within 2 days of applying a new sensor and over patch when they both should stay in place for a full 10 days plus an additional 12 hours the sensor continues to work after it expires so you can change it at your convenience. Almost 3 years ago, I began searching for a better over patch that I could place over the newly inserted CGM system. I tried about 20 different over patches and medical tapes sold on Amazon and finally found a winner that stays in place for the entire 10 day sensor period and it also works well with Skin Prep and Skin Tac. After I place the Dexcom sensor and over patch onto the desired site following Dexcom’s instructions, I also use a waterproof adhesive over patch made by Lexcam which was purchased from Amazon. It definitely grips the Dexcom G7 sensor and both the Dexcom and Lexcam over patches and works with both the Skin Prep and this Skin Tac liquid to provides additional adhesion and protection for my fragile skin. The adhesives from the sensors and both over patches stay in place and don’t cause skin irritation or blistering of my skin. The Lexcam over patches made for the Dexcom G7 Sensor are waterproof and are the easiest over patches to apply (IMO). If too much Skin Tac and/or skin prep was applied, I use Smith and Nephew Adhesive Remover wipes (purchased from Amazon) to clean the area around the Lexcam Dexcom G7 over patches. The remover wipe is fantastic for easily removing adhesive residue from any areas where you don’t want it. The remover wipes are also essential whenever the CGM sensor and CGM patch plus the Lexcam waterproof over patches need to be removed after the CGM sensor’s session has expired. The adhesive remover wipe quickly dissolves the adhesive from both over patches and the CGM protecting your skin from being stripped during the removal process. I use the same remover wipe to clean up any leftover adhesive that might be left on my skin after everything has been removed. This Skin Tac liquid adhesive product is a lifesaver. However, I don’t recommend purchasing the Skin Tac brand of adhesive remover wipes. They seem very ineffective whenever I have tried using them to remove Skin Tac or any other type of medical grade adhesive product.

J’avais les lingettes et j’aimais bien, mais je voulais essayer liquide! WoW ça colle! Nous devons utiliser un dissolvant pour enlever la plaque de stomie! Idéal pour la baignade ou pour des voyages où il fait très chaud et qu’un appareillage à de la difficulté à coller! C’est vraiment impressionnant!!

This skin adhesive works great and didn’t cause itching. My heart monitor came off and I used this to reapply it. The monitor never budged. These devices usually cause itching, but the adhesive barrier seems to provide protection from itching as well as holding the device.
