Tests with a stick meter. The itching would be so bad that I could never go 7 days without a Dexcom sensor. The adhesive on the darn sensor would weaken, and I would 'lose' it within three months if I didn't scratch it I have been home for four In my first test, I got an A on this stuff. B. Stopped the itching and C. I stuck with it for on stayed on for 13 days, and it was hard to remove at that point. The only reason I kept it at 4 star is that spray is a bit wide. I spray close to my skin, and use a q-tip to remove. The fastest way to spread a bit out is to 'spread' it quickly. I then insert the sensor once it has dried to Very tacky. I am so glad I no longer have the itch!.
The young girl in my family has Type I diabetes, which is managed by insulin pumps and CGMs (continuous glucose monitors). Her skin is both inserted with needles that are left on for three weeks on both of these devices With adhesive patches, it lasts for seven days. Mastisol helped keep the CGM sensor in place after we had a hard time keeping it in place. My daughter's sensor sites remain firmly attached for a whole week now after spraying the adhesive patches with Mastisol (and covering the actual needle area with Mastisol first). The Mastisol doesn't cause any irritation to her skin, even though she's had problems with many different types of tapes and patches in the past. Thanks to this product, we've been able to accomplish a lot!.
Be aware that this stuff is extremely sticky, so much so that it will have to be rubbed with alcohol to stick to the surface. However, it is an excellent adhesive. In the latter part of my swim in the pool, I fooled around and splashed, and my dexcom never moved. The initial smell can be a bit unpleasant, but it's well worth the effort once your cgm finally wants to stick to you.

It is crucial for me to adhere my subcutaneous insulin pump sites to my skin with this product. During the summer, south Louisiana gets extremely hot and humid (especially during the summer months), so my garment needs to be able to cope with sweat during exercise. I work out hard, and sweat profusely.
I have been using this product for about a year now and it has worked phenomenally. My only regret about this is that you are going to have to wash any excess off so that your clothes don't stick to it, which means you will lose a layer of material in the process. To me, it is a 5 star product, or a rating of 5 stars. Whenever I need an answer, I don't look anywhere else!.
I am very happy with it. Having just purchased this product, I use it to attach my Dexcom as I hate the tape! It is possible to get at least 2 weeks out of a sensor if I want to. would like to ask a question Take the tip and rub it along the Q-shaped groove It is super sticky so you should not get it on anything other than the site! Use it on my site and rub it on it. I was able to get about 6 months out of a bottle. Dexcom users are highly encouraged to consider it if they use I need a translator for Matt in Lexington, Kentucky.
To help keep a Dexcom CGM in place, I used this. I used it on my stomach (not too close to my nose), but the smell lingered for days after I used it. It does a decent job of helping things stick, but I didn't like the flavor. Compared to Skin Tac Wipes without the bad smell, I find them to be just as effective.
