Application
It comes with 5 patches per box and each patch is in a sealed sterile envelope. The patches are clear and have an adhesive to hold it to the skin. They say you can bathe or shower with these on, but I am not that lucky. I have to use paper tape to help hold them on. You have to be careful opening the envelope so as not to cut the patch, which will result in an overdose and that would be bad.... review »

My sister was buried Thursday from using the Fentanyl patch 75Mcg. She put it on for the first time Friday night. She didn't answer her phone the next day nor the next. We broke into her home and found her dead. She also had taken a Lunesta for sleep. You can only imagine the heartbreak we felt. We thought she took the lidocaine patch but her doctor gave her the Fentanyl 75mg. the day before. Please be very careful with this narcortic. She was 61 years old and had Fibromylgia.

I was on this medication when I had my finger amputated and they were trying to get my pain under control. The Fentanyl Transdermal Patch is great and comes in several different strengths depending on what you need.

Fentanyl (brand: Duragesic) transdermal patch is a Schedule II medication and is one of the only (if not the only) patch available for long-acting / sustained release pain medication.

When I was on the medication, I found that it was the only medication that lasted for the given time; it lasted for about 2 to 3 days before I noticed it wearing off (whereas most of the oral medications did not give me pain relief for the 6 to 8 hours it stated). ...

Best pain reliever I've found for my fybromyalgia and other ailments since coming down with Grave's Disease in 2003. My heart goes out to those of you though who lost someone because of flaws in this medication. My only complaint is that I don't get 72 hrs. worth of pain relief from the 100mcg patch, I only get 48 hrs. worth of pain relief and was on the same dosage (three boxes per month, 15 patches) for over two years. Now I have a new doctor and since the instructions say that it can relieve pain for up to 72 hrs. I am only getting two boxes (10 patches) per month and I am now losing ground...
