Omnipod 5 Overpatches Waterproof-55 Pack Transparent pod pals, Omni pod 5 Adhesive Patches Long Lasting to 10 Days

This is the first brand of and these do not stick as well as the other ones you could put it on and pull the tab off and it’s like there’s no adhesive on some of them. I’m not very pleased with this because we have lost a couple of devices due to this very reason and they are hard to replace and are expensive.

They work really well on our very active 6 year old Type 1. Lasts a full 3 days and leaves no sticky residue, unlike the O5 Pod itself. We spray Flonase on her application sites prior to installing all of her "gadgets" to prevent the risk of itching (per endocrinologists instructions) and we have had no issues with itching since!

They stick well. I use a skin prep prior to placement, I rarely pop one loose.

Nice . Easy to use . Works well

Sadly, I won't be able to suggest this product as its very difficult to apply and once on your skin starts to peel right away. As shown in my picture, this is right after applying a new pod and patch. Skin was cleaned with alcohol pad and allowed to thoroughly dry. This is my 2nd pod to use these patches on and out of 55 patches I have 48 left in the pack. Why are so many patches missing? Well, there are no instructions at all and 4 patches in I finally figured out it is a double-sided patch and the side without the blue strip needs to be removed first. I'm pretty smart and apply these types of patches to my Dexcom so it should be more straight forward. Anyway, the rest of the missing patches is due to the patches not staying put. The one I'm using in the photo I'm actually going to have to endure for the 3 days of my pod's life because if I try and lift it off to replace it, it wants to remove the pod's adhesive and I'm not wasting a pod for a patch that is supposed to keep the pod on. The only thing this product has right is the price/quantity although if it's not usable they could be free and still worthless. It helps slightly to have someone help you put it on. I peel the smaller section first then apply it. After the small section is applied, I have my wife hold it down while I fight to peel off the bigger part and then hope it will stick correctly. I don't like that OmniPod is so cheap they can't provide a patch like Dexcom does, but in my opinion if you need a patch to help keep your pod in place look elsewhere.

I have had a lot of trouble keeping Omnipods stuck to my skin. These patches keep them stuck securely to my body. Without them, the Omnipods pull away and become useless. The instructons are in Chinese English, which of course are horrible. "....press the patch to your skin suitably." "(4)FInally, rub the patch from the middle to the edge to make patch smoothly." But at least with these instructions, you get the idea. Also, they provide photos, instead of drawings, which helps immensely. All in all, these patches prevent you from wasting Omnipods due to detachment. Yes, I have wasted a few of the patches because I didn't understand the instructions. But they are so inexpensive that it was worth it to just throw away the botched patch and start over.

As a diabetic for over 30 years, also a mechanic I sweat these patches really help. Keep the Omnipod on my skin. Also help it from ripping off if I brush up against something highly recommend, I’ve bought these several times.

While it is discreet, it is definitely not waterproof, but I appreciate it for keeping my pump in place. That was the main reason I bought it but if you’re looking for something that is waterproof, I would not consider this one. This photo was just after a day that I applied it and all I did was take a shower and it’s already coming up from the edges… like I said it keeps the pump in place, however the entire sticker is not as adhesive as advertised Also, it’s not the easiest to put on. But they do come with directions, which I appreciate.

Genial

Thin, non-irritant and does the job of keeping the pod in place. Have purchased this particular overlay for over a year now and I make it a point to have these at home always.. as its one less thing my T1 needs to worry about that the pod might come off!
