Customers say
Customers find these patches effective for providing pain relief for back and knee issues. They have a larger relief area than smaller patches. However, some customers report that the adhesive is subpar and the patches don’t stay in place for the full time period of use. There are mixed opinions on value for money and ease of application.

It DOES work
Had pain in knee and ankle. Put patches on both. Patches adhered to skin easily. Next morning removed patches and NO PAIN on either area. Can’t believe how fast these worked I’m sold. Great value and quality

Worked great!
These work great! I tweaked my back a couple weeks ago and needed something to help with it the pain. I tried a few different options but this was one the best. It stayed in place very well. It took a little while to kick in but I forgot about it, and then an hour or two later it just sort of hit me that my back wasn’t really bothering me anymore. Ordered more just to have some on hand.

Stick great, but I developed allergy to adhesive
I was thrilled with these patches, but unfortunately, I developed an itchy allergy to the adhesive. I can only use them on occasion, for 6 hours max. Contrast that to RX Lidoderm CQ (brand & generic), which I wore nearly 24/7 for a decade. I use Lidocaine 4% gel all the time on my back, so itâs not the lidocaine, itâs the adhesive.They do stick so much better than the Rx generic 5% lidocaine patches, though . Salon Pas patches are 4% lidocaine, but if a patch doesnât stick, you get no benefit, no matter what the strength. I havenât noticed any difference in results between 4% and 5%, but the difference in skin adherence is huge. I use these horizontally to cover my lumbar discs, L3-S1.Speed of relief: NOTE: It takes 48 hours of continuous wear to achieve steady-state levels of analgesia, so donât judge before that. With the Rx version, then you can go 12 hours on/12 off after that, while maintaining steady state, but I wear mine 24/7 when I have back pain.Lidocaine patches donât offer instant relief, theyâre better suited for longer term use for chronic pain conditions. For immediate relief, buy a 4% or 5% lidocaine cream or gel, apply a thick layer, wrap the body part in Saran Wrap and wait 90 minutes. Then, remove the wrap, wash/wipe off all the excess, let your skin completely dry for ~15 minutes, then put on your first Salon Pas patch. Thatâll give you a big head start on getting to steady state.Iâm a former pharmaceutical rep in pain management, thatâs why I know about the blood levels, etc., and I have a few tricks up my sleeve. ;)Be sure to follow the instructions for applying, by popping the film apart in the center, sticking that on and then carefully peeling the film one side at the time, to avoid the patch edges sticking to itself (it doesnât come apart).

Great for pain relief
But it doesnt cure. So dont use it as a treatment.
