ABSTRACT:
A flat, adhesive bandage having a lower, skin contacting surface coated with a first adhesive, and an upper surface partially coated with a second adhesive. At least one tab integrally extends from one edge of the bandage and is releasably adhered to the upper surface in complete covering relation to the second adhesive and in covering relation to an uncoated portion of the upper surface. When it is desired to remove the bandage from the skin, the tab may be grasped and lifted away from the upper surface. The tab may then be pulled in a direction to effectively remove the bandage. Therefore, it is not necessary to pry between the skin and the bandage's lower surface to effect removal of the bandage.
