Best product for the price,
I use these dressings to cover my fentanyl patch. This is the best size for complete coverage of that patch and the best price I have found is at Medex. These stay on under the shower and stay put until you take them off.

|Really good for covering wounds, med patches, etc…,
I’m a nurse and used quite a few different types of adhesive covers. Tegaderm is up there in the list of my favorite products. Just make sure that wherever you are going to put it, clean ‘and dry’ the area well, use no lotions or powders near where it will go. Keep you hands clean and dry as you prepare to place the cover on – the ‘paper frame that goes around the outside of it’ should help keep the plastic cover firm enough while you center it over the wound or med patch. Gently place the Tegaderm sticky side down, centered right over the middle of your target. Smooth it outwards, from center out carefully not to create rolls or folds. If you lift up part of the Tegaderm to try and straighten any rolls out, it just won’t stick as good as it would have should you have left it alone. I just smooth out any air bubbles (rarely any). C-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y lift and pull off the tape that surrounds the perimeter of the patch (aka the window frame of the patch). Toss. If you have to keep track of how many days it’s been on for the next change or to tell your nurse/doctor, take a black sharpie and just write in small letters/numbers today’s date/time that you put it on. Or you could go crazy and create an art work on every Tegaderm you wear – why not? Have fun.
Aloha, enjoy your Tegaderms!!!

|Best Ever,
Adheres better than anything I have ever tried – even in the shower. Holds tightly over other “self-adhesive” medicated patches so they don’t come loose. Even after three days of use, the Tegaderm Dressing is still tight. A little pricey, but work every penny.
