Adhesive patch peeling off body
Solution
After your sensor is inserted, you can reduce
peeling by:
• Putting Overpatch or medical tape (such as
Blenderm) over the adhesive patch. Do not
cover transmitter. Avoid open wounds.
• To order Overpatch, contact Technical
Support at dexcom.com, or contact your
local Dexcom representative.
For your next sensor session, you can prevent
peeling before inserting your sensor by:
• Making sure your skin is clean and dry
before inserting sensor.
• Using adhesive products (such as Mastisol
®
,
SkinTac™) under patch. Avoid spot where
needle inserts.
• Thoroughly rubbing patch onto skin.
