My husband was on Fentanyl patch for awhile and did well. He taped the patch on because if he started to sweat it would try to come off. He took 100mgs per patch and changed it out every two days rather than three. He eventually stopped taking it because of that and went on Methadone and that worked better for him.

i was given these to try but after 3 hours i had a severe allergic reaction....projectile vomiting and severe breathing problems...removed patch immediately and took 3/4 days to recover! just my experience very frightening but obviously doesn't happen to everyone
