FAQs
What is a D Patch?
The D Patch is a small, water resistant patch designed to cover your diabetic device without sticking to it! This allows the user to be safe in the knowledge their device is securely attached. The D Patch comes in 10 colours and is made from a Cotton/Spandex mix material.
How does it stick?
At D Patch we have created the perfect combination of medical grade adhesive and a clever sticking pattern. This means that your D Patch will stick around your sensor but not to it, therefore you can carefully peel your D Patch off and swap for a new one as often as you like without removing your sensor. The adhesive we use is medical grade, hypo allergenic and latex free.
How long will it stay on for?
This is very much dependant on the user – when trialling the D Patch our users ranged from 14 to 25 days wear until they had to replace the Patch.
Which devices can I use with D Patch?
Any! We have launched with our Freestyle Libre D Patch but will be following up with a similar patch for use with Omnipod, DexCom and Medtronic products. If you have any other shape sensor please contact us and we will be able to help.
What if I’m not sure which D Patch to choose?
We have created a MultiPack which includes one of every colour: you'll find a vibrant pink, pastel purple and neutral beige and many more - there is something for everyone! We also do a Mix & Patch option so you can pick and mix you own choice of colours!
