Does this tape breathe? I'm ideally looking for something that does not.

It’s more cloth-like. It’s is not 100% occlusive but it is quite strong. Great for reinforcing gauze dressings or “framing” a dressing (I’m a nurse). I also use it to tape over tags on my shirts! It will survive a washing or too. (I hate tags and this prevents me from ripping my shirts)

is this tape latex free? I am allergic to adhesives and latex. thank you.

I used for 3 weeks without any issues and I am allergic to latex! I cannot use any bandaid (no matter what brand) without getting a bubble like itchy rash on my skin! THIS DID NOT Happen after using Hypafix tape on my surgical wound. I recommend 100 % ..you will not be dissatisfied.

Is anyone using this tape over insulin pump cgm for the purpose of extending the life of the cgm?

Yes, works beautifully. Holds for about 7 days through showers, then i trim peeling up edges and put another piece over all. Then at end of 14 days, pull all of. This is the Libre Freestyle 14 day CGM.
