Hi Scott..... I am allergic to ALL tapes and I am having to have
packing and dressing changes on a daily basis.  Needless to say my
skin was becoming quite raw where the skin had a tendency to stay
with the tape.  The visiting nurse brought a new tape to try.  It
sticks GREAT (ouch) BUT it does NOT take the skin with it when
removed and the skin is not beet red either.

The name is HYPAFIX, manufacturer is Smith and Nephew Medical
(division of Smith and Nephew, Inc.) Massillon, Ohio 44646  OR you
can call Medical West Healthcare Center  444 S. Brentwood Blvd.
Clayton, Missouri 63105 (314) 725-1888 or (800) 727-1488.

Good luck with it.
