Equate Maximum Strength Lidocaine Pain Relieving Patches, 6 Count

I bought this product while shopping for the small SalonPas for my neck and shoulders that I use on a regular basis. I saw the large Lidocaine ones that I had not tried before and looked at them. I compared them to the Equate ones next to them. After comparing the active ingredients from both boxes and seeing that they were the same, the next thing I looked at was the price and that’s where there was a big difference, several dollars. That’s when I decided to give these a try. These are large patches 3.93” x 5.51” which was enough to cover my back side to side. When you first apply the patch it is cold so it might give you a start. These hold on very well...unless you forget and get in the shower, in which they will dislodge. These lidocaine infused patches did a good job of helping relieve topical pain. They are not messy and do not smell like medicine. These worked as well as their higher priced counterparts. I would recommend these to others.

If you do not know how to properly put these on then no they will not stick! Clean area you wish to attach it to with alcohol first just like nurses do in the hospital for bandaids. I use them on the back of my neck from three spinal surgeries and YES they help. They also stick much better when you stretch them out properly! I also nurse kinesiology tape on the corners to keep them down. After this they would stay on for days if not for showers!
