A member asked:
In what part of the matrix style pain patches is the fentanyl? the plastic or the glue like adhesive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Concerned for you: If you have been prescribed the fentanyl patch without instructions (how to remove the plastic, adhere the patch to your skin in a trunk location without hair) return immediately to your pharmacist with your patches and questions. You need to understand all about application, adherence to your schedule, side-effects, etc. If you have a history of addiction, ask him/her for help.
