Substitute for doppler gel?

laurelita42laurelita42 member

I am just about out of the gel that came with my doppler, and I really don't want to reorder more through the website unless I have to. Does anyone know if there's a good substitute for it that I can get at a local drugstore? TIA!

    I just ran out too.  I think other gels work, but I want to avoid stickiness, so I re-ordered this bottle from Amazon ($5.29 and free shipping).

    This! it works better for me than the stuff that came with mine actually....

    It sits on my nightstand next to my doppler though, so it's deff the first thing someone spots when they walk into my room hahaha...
