FixiС Adhesive Patches 25 Pack 3 1/2" – Good for Libre 1, 2, 3 & Plus – G7 & Stelo – Guardian – Waterproof Adhesive Patches – Libre Adhesive Covers – Pre-Cut – The Best Fixation for Your Sensor! (Tan)

I have been using these for a while. I love them. My Libre sensors run for 15 days and these stay on the whole time! Through showers, rain, swimming. When the sensor expires the patch comes off trouble free! Great product! I feel the insurance companies should include these with Libre prescription.

I use to use the clear CGM covers until I had an allergic reaction to them. Then I switched over to these. They have adhesive across the entire back-side, which means there is not an adhesive-free section to go over the libre sensor. That being said, it doesn't matter as much as I thought it would. I prep my skin all around the sensor by shaving any hair from the area, scrubbing the area with a brush to remove any dead skin that would cause issue and then scrub it well with 91% isopropyl alcohol to remove any oils, then letting the area dry for 5-10 minutes prior to applying the sensor and covers. My old ones would last about a week before needing replaced. These last the full two weeks, and even after two weeks they want to stay on.

I currently wear the Freestyle Libre sensors to monitor my blood sugar levels. These sensors have a water resistance of 30 minutes at 1 meter (~3ft), which would, usually, negate the potential of spending any significant time in a swimming pool. I've also had issues wherein I'd bump my arm against a doorway, cabinet, etc, resulting in inadvertent sensor removal. With these patches, I'm able to spend longer timeframes in the water and/or swim down to deeper depths. Additionally, they provide enough coverage over the sensor that bumping into objects won't catch the edge of the sensor, protecting it from being pulled off of my arm. All of this allows me to not have to worry about my sensor while going about my life. If I had any suggestion, it would be a version with a two week maximum adhesion timeframe. The current patches are rated to hold, securely, for 7 days. As I am wearing the 14day Libre sensor, I have to replace the patch midway through the active sensor's life...while removing the patch from my arm can be performed in a relatively easy manner, after 7 days (except for the pulling of hairs...LOL), the patch does adhere REALLY WELL to the sensor. As a result, I have to be extremely careful in how I remove the patch from the sensor, itself, so that the sensor doesn't accidentally come off/out of my arm. All in all, I highly recommend this product. I have been using them for nearly a year and was happy to re-order them when I needed more.

These are the only thing that actually keep my freestyle on my arm. Apparently my skin is both oily and acidic and breaks down adhesives. It is water proof and removes easily when I am ready. I just wish they held up a little better. The edges will start to fray and pull up slightly, kind of like a fabric bandaid, after only a day even while tucked into a sleeve and not touched. I have to apply a new one after two to three days as it peels more and frays in further. On the bright side this patch has completely solved the issue of pulling my sensor our if I graze a door accidentally. It keeps it flush to my skin, so that's one less FreeStyle issue to worry about.

The first time i ordered FixiC patches, I ordered the product on the left. The smaller one with the hole in the middle. These ones are great! They stay on for the entire 2 weeks and don't irritate my skin as much. But when I selected "Buy again" I received a completely different product. The 2nd time I ordered, what came to me was much bigger, less efficient, irritated my skin, was NOT waterproof and most importantly did not have the cut out in the middle part that would cover the sensor. The crappy idea of having the adhesive cover the sensor and stick to it as well was a very horrible idea. This product was terrible and I had to change the patch at least 3 times in one two week sensor period. When I went to pull the patch it also pulled my sensor out as a result of the patch adhesive being stuck onto the sensor. In all I lost 2 sensors and my money and time because of this lousy product I'm very unsatisfied and what sucks the most is I can't trust the FixiC product anymore so I won't order it again and risk the same thing happening. And also lost out on my $17 plus shipping I paid because Amazon will not cover this product. So I get no refund and no replacement with the (RIGHT) one! what a waste of my time and money. Such a disappointment!

Patches stay on well and cover the sensor. Happy with quality and performance of these patches.

The Rainbow Fixic patches are the best patches I have ever tried. These with the Skin Tac Adhesive Barrier Wipe and with TacAway Adhesive Remover Wipes makes applying over my Freestyle Libre 2 and now 3 a Breeze. These patches stay put. I can usually wear 1-2 of them for the for the entire 14 days run cycle of the libre 3. Including swimming for 4+ hours a day. The colors are vibrant and beautiful. They do not fade with showers or swimming. These are now my Go To Equipment. I also use them as bandages. Strong. Beautiful. Gets the job done. Each pack comes with 25. I just 100% love them.

I opened the package today and two covers are damage and the one I just put on a couple of hours ago started peeling already :(. Too bad, I actually like the vivid colors but I will have to change the one I just put in today.
