Kathi:

One good thing to know is that once you apply the patch (sometimes they don't stick), you can take a product called Johnson and Johnson Transparent dressing (I believe that's what it's called).

It's made to be placed right over the patch and secure it in place. It peels away like a bandaid, and it's placed over the patch and it STAYS.

We did this every three days. The patch never moved. Alan showered with it and everything. He just felt more comfortable knowing it wouldn't fall off.

Some people do not have any problems with sweating and the patches falling off.

Alan was afraid that it would come off in the shower. We called up the Endo Pharmaceuticals and they arranged for Alan to get box of these Johnson and Johnson peel off dressing thingees. Very handy little items.

When do you think you will try the patch for yourself??
