Review on 🩹 SIMPATCH Dexcom G6 Adhesive Patch (25-Pack) - Waterproof, CGM Patches in Multiple Colors - Enhance Your Dexcom G6 Experience by Rick Alexander

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Skin reacts to adhesive and itching/Very uncomfortable

My husband has tried this brand (and several others). They stick well after application (and before application we prepped the skin). In short, his skin under and around him was EXTREMELY red and itchy. He showed it in these photos, but next time he had to change hands. Then, while being applied to the new part of his arm, his other arm (and current arm) STILL itched; as if he just wanted to tear it down. He is very hardworking, always running, sweating, showering etc and he still managed to BUT barely stay. However, the skin reaction heals for WEEKS (nearly a month). While this is the best we've found for its Dexcom, we're still looking for a better and less disruptive adhesive! Hope the photos give some insight and good luck in your search!
