Can A Prescription Patch Be Used For Severe Pain?
My wife uses prescription patch. She had shingles two and half years ago. She has terrific pain in a couple of places. Can she use the patch in two different places and exceed the 12 hour period if they are in different places as long as she does not exceed the 12 hour period with any one place?
