Title: I, umm, am not certain how to apply Estraderm patch?
Post by: Stephanie_b on May 23, 2012, 05:31:06 PM
I finally just got home 30 minutes ago with my patches.  I stuck two on, but they seem strang
E.
Flimsy plastic with gel in the middle.  Do I have to try to rip the patch apart to apply it?  They are stuck on but I'm not sure I did it correctly....and they aren't sticky at all like I thought they would be.

Okay I'm officially embarrassed now asking this.   :embarrassed:

There should have been instructions, either on the box or printed by the pharmacy, describing the proper way to apply them.

The instructions weren't very good, but its okay.  I discovered that I did put them on correctly.   The only weird part I found was that there's supposed to be a sticky side, but both sides feel the same; not sticky. 

Its working though as I can feel something already! ;D
