ExpressionMed - Adhesive Patches for Dexcom G7 and Stelo (5-Pack) - Made in The USA, Waterproof, Non-Fraying, Pre-Cut CGM Sensor Tapes (Pastel Flowers Variety Pack - Flower Shape)

I’ve used Expression med over patches for almost a year (Used Libre 3, then Dexcom G6, Libre 3+, and now Dexcom G7) and i have never had any issues! I just switched to G7 and my other sensor was close to expiring, so i had to order from Amazon for overnight shipping, but i typically order directly from the EM website. This brand is the only brand that does not cause a skin reaction, and i’ve tried them all! I recommend to anyone looking for patches that are cute and functional :) they stick well, last the entire 15 day cycle (libre 3) and are easy to apply 🥹

I use these with my Dexcom 6. Since the Dexcom is an elongated shape, the cutout is also elongated so it’s not as easy to apply by myself. Since the adhesive is quite sticky, it’s best to have someone else apply it over the Dexcom if you have it on the back side of your arm. So staying in place is its strong suit but means you need to get it aligned the first try. Quality is very good and the designs are fun. They do become a conversation starter-so if you don’t mind telling people about your monitor-go for these! I use it as an educational opportunity-so don’t mind the flashy patterns.

Buy these a lot and love all the designs. Works well and sticks great for the sensor.

I ordered this 5-pack of ExpressionMed floral adhesive patches for my fiancée’s Dexcom G7 sensor. The patches arrived in a bubble mailer inside a small bag, and the patterns look just like the photos—bright, colorful, and fun. They’re very easy to apply and align perfectly with the G7. The adhesive feels soft and comfortable on skin and hasn’t caused any irritation, even after days of use. The patches also hold up fine through showers and daily activity, which is a plus. However, the edges start to lift after only two to three days, leaving small gaps around both the inner and outer edges of the sensor. Over a full 10-day sensor life, you end up using two patches—making the pack go fast. For the high price, they just don’t last long enough. Overall, they look great and feel nice, but the durability and cost don’t quite match up. Good if you want decorative options, but not the most practical for long-term wear.

Fits well, looks nice, adhesive is very strong, hard to get off with alcohol wipes, leaves your skin sticky.

I wear a Dexcom on my forearm and have tried all the patches. I need them to help it stay on and not look gross after a few days. Without a patch, the edges start to come up and get the gross black adhesive yuck around the edges. Expression Med has hands-down the best longest lasting patches. They don't fray or peel up. They look good the whole 10 days. I also like the different patterns available. Seriously, I just tried another less expensive brand and it was completely terrible - the edges peeled up and frayed after just a few days. It's important to me that it doesn't look gross. So, buy these patches. They are the best.

Fail Fail Fail!!! Today I lost two sensors because they failed to warm up. OK, both of the sensors synced up easily, but during warm-up only about five minutes in, both failed and I had to replace. I strongly worn everybody that reads this to reconsider buying these patches. I also will be calling Amazon support about it as well. As you know, losing two sensors is equivalent to 20 days worth of glucose readings. This is detrimental to diabetics who need to rely on accurate numbers to correspond with their insulin pumps I am waiting now for my third sensor without the under patch to warm up. This will tell me for sure whether it’s the under patch Hey!! GUESS WHAT?!?! I am NOT using these patches anymore cause this new one WITHOUT IT IS WORKING! Hope I can help the next person reading this. UPDAYE! I also bout the underpatch for the Omnipod. New one fell off VERY easily. WASTING A POD AND 200 UNITS Of INSULIN! This company should be ashamed of themselves for the issues they cause diabetics. DONT USE THEM!!

These have been so much better than the typical round covers. Because of the cuts in the shape, the sticker applied easily and lies flat on my arm or stomach. No folds or issues. And they’re cute! A bit like a temporary tattoo that I can change out every ten days. No issues in the shower either. The adhesive does leave a bit of residue but I find that a little jojoba or rosehip oil removes that easily.
