Three days with the patch lasting all day. We are still having sticking issues. So the nurse has been putting bandage tape on it to hold it on. We had to do that today. So still not the desired effects. Will be calling the doc on Monday.

Uni, I had read somewhere about the adhesive....and some people had tried spraying some antihistamine spray on the area, and let it dry....I think it was flonase? Or nasnex? Unfortuanately, it was on adhdnews I was reading it and I have no access to that site anymore...
Somehow the spray was helping with the irritation....it has been a long while since I read it....
Hope this helps.

Hope this helps. And those that were having sticking issues called the company and they sent them a coupon for more patches.....they have had sticking problems since the beginning. |

Thanks puzzled, I think I will contact them.
Now I have an observation. With this patch she seems to be more medicated then when she was taking Adderall or just recently Concerta. I wouldn't want to say she looks high. But seeing enough people high, she appears that way. Could it be the strength of the patch that she is using?
And she is hardly eating at all again. Guess it'll help with her belly she was getting lol. But noticed these side effects so far.

She should not 'look' medicated I don't think. The thing with the antihistamine was that they sprayed the area that they were going to apply the patch to, let it dry, then applied the patch. It seemed that it was lessening the itch/irratation some...but it may have flopped, it has been almost a year since I have had access to that site. The company may have heard of it though..... |
