Description
UNDERLAY/BARRIER PATCHES 2.35 INCHES X 3.3 INCHES Great for Dexcom G6, Medtronic Guardian and Libre 2 sensors! If you are using the Dexcom G7 or Libre 3 sensors, please, use the Dexcom G7/Libre 3 underlay/barrier patches with hole for sensor needle or Small Generic underlay/barrier patches without hole for sensor needle
Many of our friends have experienced severe adhesive reactions from CGM sensors, so we have made some simple unprinted barrier tapes, with the same hypoallergenic tape used in our patches, that will keep the sensor or pump tape from touching the skin and causing reactions, itching, and/or adhesive chemical burns.
These Oval Shaped Adhesive Barrier patches go under the sensor, protecting you from the adhesives used in the diabetes technology that you use. The barriers are large enough to protect your skin under Dexcom G6, Medtronic & Libre 2 sensors, yet small enough to be completely covered by our designer patches/overlays. We recommend that you also use one of our over patches to additionally secure your sensor, pod or infusion set.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Barrier/Underlay Patches: These patches are designed to be applied directly to the skin underneath the sensor, pod, or infusion set to protect sensitive skin from irritation or allergic reactions from their adhesives. Peel patch away from the backing and apply to clean dry skin where you will be applying the sensor, pod or infusion set. Apply the sensor, pod, or infusion set over the patch and insert it through the patch. Apply one of our Overlay Patches over the sensor, pod, or infusion set, to provide extra security.
