My AD husband picks off the patch and I find it on the floor in the morning. I am afraid the cat will eat it and get sick. The neurologist has waffled on this. Is there any benefit half time ( I could remove it before bedtime) or should I just stop applying it at all?
24-hour patches are designed to deliver a specified dose gradually over 24 hours. If they are ripped off prematurely, the patient is not receiving the correct dose - and therefore, not achieving the benefits of the medication.
