Review: Being a diabetic isn’t. easy. Life is full of choices. Should I have that sugary snack or should I be a good diabetic and make more health conscious snack choice. If only it were truly that easy on the daily. I have been using these IV3000 clear bandage tapes for years. The freebies that come with my continuous glucose monitor (CGM) look good, usually peel off, but if they don’t, at removal time, it’s like pulling duct tape off your sensitive skin. I literally had what looked and felt like sunburn from the company’s tape. These IV3000 are reasonably priced, super comfortable, easy to apply and best of all, they keep whatever you’re trying to keep covered and attached, covered and attached better than any other tape I’ve used and I’ve used so many different ones. Yet, I keep coming back to the IV3000 after wasting my money, time and skin cells on the others. I won’t use anything but!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE!!! For me, they are a no brainer of a choice. The sugary snack… much more difficult.
Review: I have a port and from the start struggle with itch and rashes. IV3000 is the best! Even the “hypoallergenic” dressings at the hospital caused a rash and skin break down for me. Not to mention the discomfort when removing them. Not only does IV3000 not cause a rash, but it comes of much more gently!! It came highly recommended amongst support groups and I am so glad I invested. I kind of wish it was the go to at the hospital since it comes off gentle and even the average Joe can benefit from that. Remember to review the steps before applying the dressing. And when pealing the top layer off, make sure to press down the corner of the clear dressing your peeling from because that keeps it from lifting while you peel the last layer. The corners lift and don’t stay down well after if you aren’t careful to separate the dressing from the top layer. If you’re careful with this step and especially if you apply skin prep before applying the dressing, it sticks very well. It also helps to pat it down well applying pressure for warmth to make sure the top layer pulls away from the dressing. I stay accessed 4-5 days a week and it last well and if very comfortable. After you remove the dressing I recommend wiping away residue with baby oil. I use these smaller ones for accidentally lifted corners, to case the spot where the catheter leaves the dressing, and underneath my grip lock and tubie tape (to prevent rash). I use the 4 inch size for the main dressing. You might be able to do this size for a hickman though.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these help the insulin pump infusion set stick to you, or does it cover the infusion set?**
A: It completely covers the infusion set.  I keep asking for the IV 3000 with the hole so you can disconnect but there is never a response.  Your Endocrinologist should be able to write a prescription for them though.  What I did with the above was cut a circular hole in them but it is not easy to do to get it to fit correctly.

**Q: Can these be used for t:slim insulin pump infusion sites?  Is there a hole?**
A: I use the IV 3000 with my T slim infusion set. I use the tru-steel set. I have two pictures but looks like Amazon wants videos so I can’t supply a video. The IV 3000 covers both items on the set however.  it Does not have a hole in the 3000. it barely covers the set and disconnect. I can still disconnect with the 3000 on.  I’ll take extra on vacation in case it gets wet and a corner starts to come loose I just put another one on top. Hope this helps.

**Q: Item says $34.75    3.48/10 items does this mean 10 boxes of 100?**
A: There are 100 in the box just one box

**Q: Why can’t I return?**
A: Probably because they are for medical purposes.

Great product for an over patch on my Dexcom sensor. The stickiness is great but yet easy to remove. I highly recommend this product.
