    Hello, has anyone else used these patches before? I don't think they are as strong as Nicoderm. Also, they don't seem to be sticking well. I bought three boxes so I feel like I've wasted a lot of money!

    Thank you!

    I find medical-grade tape from a drug store can help keep it stuck. There are youtube tutorials out there.

    Hi Deanman,

    Hope you are doing better with the patches. 

    Triana shared the same advice we would: medical tape. Or maybe try a different spot?

    You can ask a pharmacist too about wiping down the skin before hand with an alcohol swab.
