There’s a patch for PTSD?! I’m intrigued (and sorry it isn’t hypoallergenic).
It’s called clonidine….it’s a blood pressure medication that has an ‘off-usage’ for PTSD–nightmares and flashbacks. It, along with therapy, is my lifesaver. Ask your dr about it–prob a psychiatrist or nurse practitioner…not sure PCP’s know enough about it!!! Good luck!
Thanks! I will. I’ve had blistering problems in the hospital with tape. But I wear a patch now (Neupro) without too many issues. Some redness, but as long as I only apply to arms or legs, it’s not bad. Trunk=blisters!
Good to know!!!
And, I just have sensitive skin. I react to hospital tape, too and have to request paper tape!!!
Grrrr! Well, at least you have another option, but cripes!! 😦
Agreed! It made me laugh just due to the insanity of it!
