no I haven't as I see no need to get fancy. go to your local drugstore or supermarket. look for baby wipes. they will prolly be much cheaper particularly if they are generic.

I've been using them for ten years and haven't had any problems.

good luck!

These are not wipes. You dissolve a sheet in warm water and soak your CPAP tube, mask, etc. for 5 minutes to sanitize everything.

I want to stress that you don't need to sanitize anything on or around a CPAP machine. the only thing that goes through the machine is the very same air you breathe each and every day.

Maybe that's why they're called papmd. MD's in their sleep labs do need to sanitize between patients.

Baby wipes (the scentless kind) is what I use too.

I can't find anything on papmd.com that resembles what you've described, perhaps you should provide a link.

CPAP branded wipes are tenfold the cost of baby wipes and basically they are the same as baby wipes.

A sheet that dissolves dissolves in warm water???

Sounds expensive, silly and unnecessary.

true. but as grumpy48 points out, they are being sold on Facebook, though like they point out there doesn't seem to be a link.
