Hearts in the Leo pattern make the sensor a lovely detail: diabetes sensor jewelry, for example as Dexcom G7 jewelry. It is also suitable for, e.g., Freestyle Libre 2 as well as Medtronic Enlite and Guardian. The tapes are waterproof and breathable, and their strong, skin-friendly adhesive ensures that the tape stays securely in place while showering, swimming, and exercising.

Frequently asked questions
Waterproof Dexcom G7 patch: Can I shower and swim with it?
Yes, the tape is waterproof and water-resistant. You can wear it while showering, swimming, and exercising; the strong adhesive ensures that the tape stays securely in place.
How can I remove adhesive from my skin?
The easiest way to remove adhesive from the skin is with an adhesive remover designed for skin use. Follow the instructions for use, especially the information on application and contact time. You can find a selection in our adhesive removers. In the event of a patch allergy or other skin reactions caused by patch adhesive or sensor adhesive, our guide on skin irritation explains what the possible causes are and what you should know about skin protection and skincare. If skin reactions persist, speak with your diabetes team.
What is the difference between an overpatch, ring tape, and underpatch?
An overpatch has no cutout and is placed over the sensor. A ring tape has a cutout and frames the sensor. An underpatch is placed between the skin and the sensor. This tape is an overpatch without a cutout.
What is the tape cover for?
The tape cover is a thin, flexible cap that is placed on the sensor and under the tape. It makes changing the tape during the sensor's lifespan easier: When you remove the tape, the tape cover comes off with it, and you can reuse it.

For this overpatch, you can find tape covers. They are placed between the sensor and the tape and make changing the tape easier. Choose the version for your sensor model.

Tips for overpatches/tapes to cover with
Taping and changing cover tapes is even easier with our TapeCover protective cap: this permanently reusable plastic part is glued between the tape and the sensor, ensuring that you can easily remove the tape and apply a new one during its service life.
Tips for edging tapes with a hole:
For tapes with a hole, we developed our adhesive aid, TapeGuard: TapeGuard is a small, flexible plastic frame that fits exactly around your sensor and onto which the tape is affixed. The tape and TapeGuard can then be easily applied to difficult body areas without external help.

Can I change the tapes while the sensor/pod is running?
You can easily remove or replace the tape at any time during the sensor/pod's wear time: Firmly press the sensor/pod onto the skin from above and carefully peel the tape off the skin around it. While continuing to press the sensor/pod firmly onto the skin with one finger, peel a portion of the tape away from the sensor/pod until a sufficiently large unglued area on the sensor/pod becomes visible. Press your finger onto this unglued area of the sensor/pod and then peel off the remaining tape.
