Freestyle Libre Sensor Covers, 50 Pack Waterproof Libre Adhesive Patches Transparent CGM Patches Without Glue

Product Information

In addition to wearing a Libreband, below are some steps we recommend when swimming wearing a sensor or CGM. Well, to help you decide, I’ve put together this guide on the best Freestyle Libre patches for your sensor. I haven’t yet used the Freestyle Libre patches on my sensors, but I have used PumpPeelz in the past for their cool peelz for pumps, and they were great quality, so perhaps their Freestyle Libre patches for sensors are just as good. Many of us find the limitations set by the manufacturer as too restrictive and it’s a common question to ask “how can I make the sensor waterproof” so to be able to swim for longer or do other water activities.

There are now lots of ways to express your personality via your diabetes gear, and new ways to keep diabetes a lot more fun.

NJAP is a company that creates a range of patches for every CGM you can imagine, Dexcom, Medtronic, MiaoMiao, Omnipod, and the Freestyle Libre. I believe by using these extra methods, the sensors worn on our travels lasted the full two weeks whilst on my arms.

They make medical adhesives that are placed over Continuous Glucose Monitors and other devices to help keep them on your skin longer and safer.Some pumps are described by their manufacturer as ‘watertight’ and this usually means that they can withstand rain and splashes, but are not suitable for submersion. For example, Tandem pumps are watertight to IPX7 standard but are not suitable for wearing while showering, swimming or diving. Great to know for normal Libre 2 sensor wearing, but also, I get great peace of mind when swimming knowing I have that extra layer of support. Rinse off immediately post-swim as this will reduce the effect or any chemicals from the water, or salt from the sea. I love the colours and I’ve had NO issues with skin irritation, which has honestly been a real problem for me in the past with my super sensitive skin.
