Patch for Libre

Being quite new to CGM monitoring, I have tried several products from different brands to find the right one for me and a couple from “Not just a patch”. I have sensitive skin and these are great and the material is so thin, air like as they say. Have not had any red rashes so perfect for my skin. I’m glad I found you could get patches as solved my problem of getting too close to doorways and pulling the libre out!!. (Or maybe that’s just me ha). I also tried several lower costs patches, which didn’t stay on for even a day. The cost may be a little high but you do get 20 and they stay on even after showering. Which means the box of 20 patches lasts ages. I do prefer the air patch to the original patch from “Not just a patch” but it’s only the thickness of them that is different. So that’s only personal preference to which thickness you would like. Great product, little bit expensive but really stays on. I won’t be buying any other brand from now on.

Tried several covers for my Libra 2 sensor and this is the first patch to stay in place for the 15 day period. Total peace of mind and no worries about my sensor getting knocked off. The adhesion is perfect if you shave the area first. Have used my first pack of 20 and so pleased I have made a second purchase.

gud points great if you have allergies , great adhesion usually get 10-12 days from one patch , bad points colour fades and the go kinda fluffy looking with minor edge peel, however if you prep your skin well wash throughly remove any residue soap or creams etc / buff skin on arm when using on your other arm if like me you have dry skin as this removes dead skin cells that can affect adhesion and use an alcohol wipe followed by skin tac wip allowed b both top fully dry before application and they do stay on also very thin ponce on you cant even feel its there , a lot of other patches are just like kinesiology tape so nothing special and if you’ve ever used that you will know how it peels off especially after getting wet ! Good also is the non stick centre providing you peel off carefully and slowly you can remove and replace without pulling sensor out , ive waited for 5 moths now before writing this while trying different patches out and still end up coming back to these

While the adhesive isn't as strong as others on the market, for someone like me who's highly allergic to typical Elastoplast glue, these are much more like medical glue. It's made with what seems to be micropore tape and glue, which is hypoallergenic. I've used other brands from Amazon and ended up with blistering. This is the only brand that doesn't thanks to the materials and glue used! Would recommend highly if you have allergies or sensitive skin :)

They don’t stick very well at all, I went through 3 in one day, not very sticky. Waste of money, have requested a refund

Good product, stays stuck after showers and is very comfortable to wear. Protects my Libre 2 blood glucose monitor. Will update review after a couple of weeks.

There’s no denying that for what these are - water resistant dressings, they are expensive, but the fact is, they work, and they work brilliantly! Before using these patches, every so often, I’d catch the edge of my CGM tag, lift it and a few minutes later, I’d be applying a new one, the now useless one still having days to run. I don't think I’ve lost a single CGM since I started using these patches. I know that Abbott will replace “lost” tags, but only for so many times, then even their patience runs out. These patches don't do anything fancy, beyond stop you from losing a CGM tag early, but especially if you are self-funded, or your GP is in no hurry to provide “extra” tags, these pacthes can be a life-saver.

I was fed up with my sensors falling off, particularly in the heat. I bought some different covers in preparation for my holiday last year but non stuck because of the heat so I had to revert to finger pricking for 2 weeks 😡 when I got home I done a little research and found these. Game changer! I tried them at home and it lasted a week (showering daily). Only changed it because it was looking grotty. Been on several hols since and they are great. In and out the pool, suntan lotion, hot, humid weather. 👍👍👍

I recently tried out the Patch Freestyle Libre 2 covers, and I have to say, they are a game changer! These covers are incredibly easy to use and have made a significant difference in my experience with the Freestyle Libre system. First and foremost, the comfort level is outstanding. Once applied, I barely notice they’re there. They fit snugly without feeling restrictive, which is essential for someone like me who is active and constantly on the move. The lightweight material allows for great breathability, and I’ve had no irritation or discomfort at all, even during workouts. One of the standout features for me is how incredibly easy they are to remove when it’s time to change my sensor. There’s no awkward tugging or pulling, and best of all, there’s absolutely no residue left behind on my skin. This makes the whole process much more pleasant compared to previous adhesive options I have tried. Overall, I highly recommend the Patch Freestyle Libre 2 covers to anyone using the Freestyle Libre system. They combine comfort and practicality flawlessly, making my monitoring experience all the more enjoyable. If you're looking for a reliable, unobtrusive cover that won’t leave a mark, this is the product for you!

Veramente pratici e resistenti

Good quality perfect on the skin

My partner bought these to cover her CGM, so far so good & they're showing no signs of lifting which is what the company claims. They look good with a good choice of colours & are very lightweight We will definitely buy more when required & she would recommend the product

Effectivement il est léger facile a mettre même seule, mais je garderai pour Printemps/ été car sous les pull fait des bouloches, et après les douches s'empire, je ne pense pas que je reprendrai.
