SWIM (of course) has a script and is on the 25mcg fentanyl patch. SWIM has the Mylan flat patches. SWIM would like to know/get opinions on what part of the body to put it. SWIM has tried all 3 "brands" and all sorts of locations. SWIM is not going to divert this patch, as SWIM has only 2 left including this one, and has chronic pain.
SWIM has tried shoulder, flank (SWIM has love handles and a bit of a belly but is not a hairy guy
), biceps, etc.
But SWIM wants to know where to place it to get maximum absorbtion, maximum bee buzz (though SWIM has never gotten a bee buzz from any of the patches unless eaten), and maximum everything while using the Mylan flat patch correctly.
Now-SWIM knows that Duragesic/Sandoz jelly bags work by creating a resevoir or pool of medication just under the skin, then drawing off of that to put the medication into the blood/body etc. Does SWIY know if it is the same for Mylan? I know the med. in Mylan is from what i hear a powder form that is in the actual adhesive layer that keeps it on a body's skin.
Suggestions would be great, SWIM has to put it on soon
As always great place, god bless and ty all.
