For Postherpetic Neuralgia "I have sciatica Couldn’t find any other options so I chose lidoderm, but I have the 5% lidocaine patches by Mylan, and they do not and will not stick to me whatsoever, doesn’t matter how much I clean the area prior, it will not stick. And they are from a new box so I don’t know what’s going on, I’ve used 4% patches from the store and they stick, I don’t understand why these won’t."

For Pain "The Watson patches work well and stick. The Mylan patches are garbage. They do not stick and deliver no relief."

For Postherpetic Neuralgia "I found the fix to make the patches stick. Get a bandaid that's a little larger than the size of the patch. Put the Band-Aid over the patch. Good Band-Aids will hold!"
