Mrs D is CORRECT about messing with the patch. Also, .25 is a very low dose of the patch. I would ask the doc if he could increase the dosage to .50 or even .75 given that you're used to a higher dosage of percocet during the day.

The patches do work -- it does take awhile for it to get into the body and to take effect. I hope it does work for you. Best of luck & God bless. Hugs, Lee
