Implementation

• To minimize side effects, use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration possible. Administration in higher than recommended doses does not provide increased effectiveness but may cause increased side effects

• Topical: Apply patch to the most painful area twice a day. Do not apply to non-intact or damaged skin resulting from any etiology (exudative dermatitis, eczema, infected lesion, burns, wounds). Avoid contact with eyes; wash hands after applying, handling, or removing patch
