Patient counselling: How to properly apply the NICODERM® Patch50
Cut package along dotted line and remove the patch
Remove liner from patch and press down firmly for 10 seconds to apply. Wash your hands.
Choose a dry hairless area above the waist or on the upper outer area of your arm, back or shoulders to apply the patch
After 24 hours, remove the patch and apply a new one to a different area. If you have difficulty sleeping, you may want to apply the patch first thing in the morning and remove it right before bedtime.
To ensure safe disposal, used patches should be discarded by folding them with the sticky sides together to minimize risk to children and pets.
Keep out of reach of children. DO NOT USE IF YOU: are under 18 years of age; are an occasional or nonsmoker; are pregnant or nursing; have generalized skin disorders (e.g. eczema, rash).
