Review on SIMPATCH – OmniPod Adhesive Patch (25-Pack) 🌈 – Waterproof CGM Tape – Available in Various Colors by Kenny Stephens

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Makes your device last longer.

The OmniPod insulin delivery system is great and usually sticks well. But my partner climbs rocks and occasionally rips off the adhesive on his capsule. We've started using them when additional activity is expected, especially when water is involved. However, you should let them heal for over an hour before jumping in the pool. Otherwise they roll down immediately and take the medical device with them. I want the OmniPod to go through the strap (btw, I spoke to the Insulet rep and they stick these stickers back to keep the pod in place - even the ones that have the strap going through the pod, are recommended). Removing the paper is also a bit fiddly. But the price is good, there have been no skin issues from using this product, and they are useful for holding the OmniPod. We also use Dexcom stickers from these guys. The only frustrating thing is that the Dex and Omnipod Simpatch sticker packs look the same. There's nothing my marker pen can't fix. :-)

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Folded shape
