I'm in two minds whether to start butran patches for my chronic pain. reassurance needed please. ?

Butrans: Butrans is a great product for chronic pain. Keep in mind it may take up to 3 days to reach steady levels. Also skin redness and mild irritation is quite normal in some. It bypasses the GI tract so less side effects related to bowel.
