If my fentanyl patch comes off accidentally can i use the same patch? And if so, how?


Answer:
You can put the patch back on if it is not damaged in anyway.
You can use a clear, sticky adhesive dressing called Tegaderm. Available at your Chemist. Just put it over the patch.You can also use these over the top of your patches when you first put them on to prevent them from coming off as they have a tendancy to do.
It should be OK to put back on if it is not damaged. You will have to tape it back on. That may be a pain come shower time.
