I would like to get some adhesive remover for medical tape. What is a good brand of adhesive remover to get? I get a rash from tape what is a good working tape that is allergy free?

baby oil, alcohol, or medical adhesive remover....wife is an infusion nurse and has to remove dressings...they use 70% isopropyl alcohol but she said also try baby oil and see which works better for you

I had that residue all over me when I came back home from the Afib thing.  

We tried alcohol and it didn't touch it.  I got in the shower and scrubbed the hell out of myself where the adhesive was with one of those exfoliating pads my wife uses on her face and soap.  Nope, still there.

My wife got out the cotton balls and fingernail polish remover and cleaned me up good.

We discussed goo gone but when the fingernail polish remover worked we were done.

It's alcohol, glycol and aloe.  I use it on actors who wear wireless mics taped to their heads every night.
