## Description

Ideal for securing and covering dressings.

Review: Can't even tell I am wearing it! - I use this to hold the larger 75mcg Fentanyl patches in place. I had spent months trying other "tapes" and my skin is sensitive and dry and I often got blisters and tape burn. Also with the "regular" type of tapes I can only tape around the outside edge and the center of the patch would not adhere or lay flat. After a lot a research it was either Hypafix Tape or Tagaderm Patches. When I kept reading that the people that used the Hypafix (and many if not most were previous Tagaderm users) kept raving about the comfort and overall better feeling with no "tape burns" etc. Not to mention the cost. I read that most people buy one box of Hypafix and it lasts for almost a year! At this point I was going to try it. All I can say so far is it's so comfortable I can't tell I am wearing it. It is very soft like a cloth and perforated and breaths really well. It is very flexible yet stays in place and so far not one corner has peeled up. I am very impressed so far. I will update my review after I have given this sometime to see if I can find any drawbacks. I would be ecstatic if this works and I stop wasting my money on those ridiculously expensive Fentanyl patches. Well its been a couple weeks and I couldn't be happier. This tape is just amazing. Not only can I not tell I am not wearing it but it stays on even when wet, sleeping and just daily use. What is so amazing about how this tape wears is that in my case I cut a section and put it over my patch (I did learn you need to get it on the right spot the first time, it not very forgiving on being pulled off and reapplied.) But the corners do not lift and start to roll up. Since I wear this 24-7 for 2-3 days at a time it's great to not have the corners start to lift or roll up. With other tapes this was a major problem and while sleeping the old tapes would often roll up on the corners or my shirt rubbing would start it lifting away. I have no idea how this holds but its sticks like no other and I can use less since I don't have to compensate for the edges lifting. The final part: removal, well lets just say I was shocked that it does not leave any residue or only a very small amount that washes off. I have no idea what they use for an adhesive but I can't separate my patch from the tape, not that it matters just rather interesting. And lastly the adhesive doesn't irritate my skin at all. The other tapes would often leave blisters or red welts where the tape was and that was using some spendy 3M tape that could only be applied to the edges of the patch and not completely over it like this can be. 5 Stars, now I am going to stock up on this just in case it not available in the future.
Review: Best wound tape - Wife and I have has several major/minor incision work and everything from tummy tuck to total hip replacement and now skin grafting this stong but very light roll tape works so well with all kinds of gauze and variety of protection material. Easy to remove!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Did anyone else have the experience where this stuck to your skin so bad that it was almost impossible to take off?**
A: No, I have not had it stick that bad. It does stick well, especially if you work outside and sweat a lot......but I do usually take the bandage off in the shower, after the water has soaked it for 5-10 minutes. The bandage is much easier to remove then.

**Q: does tape come in 3" width?**
A: No I have never found this tape in 3", but I used the 4" tape and if I needed to trim it I did.  I used also have used the 2" and overlapped it to adhere to the bandages which kept everything secure.  Either way I made it work.

**Q: How long does this take to ship??**
A: If you have Prime, two days

**Q: Is this product hypoallergenic**
A: I can't say for certain that it is hypoallergenic for everyone,  but I can say this:  I am a redhead, yet I have oily skin.  Usually, things that actually stick to my skin cause a rash, but this not only sticks well, it doesn't cause me a rash.  This was first used on me in a hospital, when they needed something to stay stuck.  I hope that helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This stuff is awesome!
*by B***S on December 13, 2025*

Husband had a cyst removed in the middle of his back. This tape is sticky enough to stay put with movement, but you can remove without too much pulling. It even stayed put during showers.
