[QUOTE="buckmr2, post: 2092027, member: 39701"] Used Libre for around 15 months and never had to use any tape. Key thing is to ensure you use the wipes before applying and letting the wiped area DRY before applying.Remove applicator square on and push down evenly and firmly on the sensor to get all of the adhesive area firmly "attached". Back of upper arm is best I find just be careful putting jumpers and shirts on that you don't drag the fabric over the sensor as edges of sleeves/cuffs can catch it. Also if it falls off after bathing/ showering Abbott will only replace if it's been wet for less than 20 minutes. [/QUOTE]
