How to apply and take care of 2sweet4me patches

HOW TO APPLY THE PATCH

  1. First, wash your hands with soap and water and dry them thoroughly.
  2. Clean the skin area where you intend to insert the sensor and where the patch will be applied. We recommend the use of alcohol wipes. The skin should be free of dirt, oils and dead skin cells. Allow the skin to dry.
  3. Carefully peel the patch from the backing and avoid touching the adhesive with your fingers.
  4. Place the patch over the sensor and centre it (or place it around the Dexcom device or infusion set).
  5. Firmly press the patch down around the edges, smoothing them evenly.

HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR PATCH

  1. After applying the patch, keep it dry for at least one hour, preferably longer.
  2. After bathing or swimming, dry the patch with a towel or blow dry it.
  3. Avoid using lotions or other oily products in the patch area.
  4. When removing the patches, you may need to use the medical adhesive remover.

ADDITIONAL TIPS

  1. Do not apply the patch right before taking a shower, a bath, before swimming or any other physical activity.
  2. We recommend applying the patch in the afternoon or in the evening, when there is less chance of sweating, especially in summer.
  3. Always apply the patch to the skin that is clean and dry.
