For Rheumatoid Arthritis "These saved Salonpas patches me. They are strong enough to help my pain! I have arthritis all over. I don’t use them for my eyes. But I have arthritis in my eyes. You guys saved me. They stay stuck for the 24 hours. Thank you for you my life is better because of Salonpas!!!"

For Osteoarthritis "Since I only recently purchased my first package I do not know what the old was like. I have had so much relief from the latest formula. My sister recommended them and I love them for arthritic back and hips. I only use small patch. I can see how large might be hard to apply without help but I haven't had any trouble at all and they stay on just fine. My stepdaughter recently visited and her knees were hurting. They helped her as well. Don't change a thing. Advise from a new loyal customer."

For Osteoarthritis "I have osteoarthritis in my lumbar spine to the point that I cannot stand up some time. The Salonpas patches actually work better than the prescription ones the doctor gave me. I think they're great, but I wish I was sure they would not hurt my kidneys like other topical can."

For Muscle Pain "I used Salonpas patches for muscle pain. I did not receive any relief due to patches not sticking to skin. I washed and dried skin thoroughly. I remember Salonpas patches worked a few years ago and stayed stuck until they were taken off and they relieved the pain. Now, maybe the patch stays stuck on skin approximately 15 minutes and rolls off. No pain relief at all. Waste of time and money. ."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "Stuck on salonpas on my strained ankle and within few hours, had a patch of red rashes with blisters. 1 week later, the whole patch became scaly and thick with countless blisters that broke and crusted. This is some dangerous medicatec plaster. I never had an allergy that bad!"

For Osteoarthritis "These patches have made life bearable and sleep possible. I was suffering from severe pain from arthritis and also ruptured discs. I have been able to function and go about life with the aid of these patches."

For Osteoarthritis "I live with chronic pain due to osteoarthritis. Prescribed gabapentin, using bengay, CBD cream, a TENS device and taking tylenol, nothing helped for more than a couple hours. I dreaded going to bed at night. That was until I tried Salon Pas. Easliy applied the patch to my lower back according to the instructions, slept through the night, woke up rested and feeling soooo much better."

For Muscle Pain "Never buy this again. Salonpas Lidocaine patch never touched my pain. I couldn't tell I had it on. Couldn't never feel the medicine doing anything. $10 dollars for the box. Now I'm stuck with my pain and patches that don't work."

For Muscle Pain "Recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Suffering from terrible back, hip & side pain. Bought these thinking they are worth a try. I am so happy I did. My pain eased enough to sleep and I still feel the effects a couple of days later. I've only used 1 at a time but its enough for me. I find them awkward to put on my back but my husband helps. I take my time and do it carefully, if it folds over I just slowly peel it apart. They stick well, no wrinkling or falling off. They smell amazing!"

"Both me and my boyfriend have been using these patches for a number of weeks now. One patch lasts 8-10 hours. We bought from eBay at a fraction of the price charged by the local chemists. They have been absolutely amazing in reducing our serious pain. Highly recommended."

For Muscle Pain "Salonpas Pain Patch are hard to apply when you live alone and the pain is on your back. It was a struggle to keep it from folding over on itself and next to impossible to get it in the right place. It is sort of on the area now, wrinkled and I am waiting for something to happen. I probably will return to voltaren"

For Muscle Pain "Have used for four or five years with no side effects...muscle strain Four days ago after Pilates in left-side neck, upper cervical, scapula. Applied four patches across back of neck; woke up three hours later, different tingling burning pain. Attributed to continued muscle strain; removed patches five hours later, showered. Several hours later noted more strained discomfort, burning; felt bumps in my scalp close to posterior neck. Slept restlessly and with continued burning sensation. Husband noted red bumps and marks over left side of neck. Called your customer care line; closed. Called Costco where purchased Lot SAO8U Exp 09/2019. "

For Muscle Pain "Purchased the Salonpas Pain Relieving Gel-Patch HOT for muscle pain in my shoulder at the recommendation of a pharmacist. The box I purchased had an expiration date of 10- 2019, however not one of the first three patches I used created any heat whatsoever. Pathetic product. Threw the remaining 3 patches in the trash and went back to TheraMax heat patches which are excellent."

For Muscle Pain "I used 2 of the Salonpas with Lidocaine patches for muscle pain in my shoulder and neck area. Started getting a rash after the second application. The rash is in the shape of the patch, very itchy and bumpy and looks like it could blister."

For Muscle Pain "Surprised by some of the adverse comments regarding this product. I find instant relief and long-lasting relief when I use them for shoulder and neck pain. And I can now get a good nights sleep with their use. And they are really simple to apply. Good product."

For Muscle Pain "I've used Salonpas Patch for muscle pain for a few years. They definitely help the pain every time. Yes, they do have a tendency stick to themselves, which is awkward. But, it is possible to keep them usable. I just have to pay attention and don't rush. I wipe the area with a cloth wetted with alcohol. They always stay for me then. I'm having back spasms now and a prescription muscle relaxer hasn't touched the pain. These took it away. Well worth the effort."

For Muscle Pain "I bought the 105mg/31.5 medicated plaster. After reading mixed review I decided to take chance as in so much pain. Had neck and shoulder pain for couple years. The plaster stuck well to clean dry skin and after second day I could feel a difference. It says not to wear after 3 days however when you open pack of 5 you need to use them, so I did and I think they are really worth buying. I will definitely keep them in house to use, I also use a hot water bottle directly on pain which gives some comfort. Hope this helps"

For Muscle Pain "I’ve been using salonpas for a long time now and this is the only time that I experienced a side effect. The skin where I placed the patch leaves a hive or a big whole rash and it is so itchy and uncomfortable."

For Muscle Pain "I have a rotator cuff that has been repaired and is trashed again. No hope of fixing it now. I also am on Xarelto for blood clots and taking NSAIDs makes me bleed in bad places. I have been using these for a few months now with pretty good results. Not great results, but they do seem to allow me to sleep. I find that if you will wipe area with alcohol, to remove skin oils, prior to application they stick pretty well. They are ok for true muscle pain, but not bony or cartilaginous structures. Also, yes you have to rotate application sites because they will cause a chemical burn in about 3 days."

For Muscle Pain "These do not provide a "miracle cure" (nor did I expect them to) but they have definitely helped with my husband's stiff neck and shoulder pain. I have been applying them to his neck and shoulders in the afternoon; then he takes a nap with a supportive pillow and feels much better when he awakens. I have not had the opportunity to try other brands/products, but I can say that these DO work and are not a waste of money. I would (and probably will) buy them again."

For Muscle Pain "I hurt my lower back. I tried Salonpas and it worked great. I was having a lot of lower back pain and unable to sleep. Since using I find if you can find the point of most painful area and apply it works greater I sleep like a baby.. Also price isn't bad anymore and are inexpensive at Dollar General. I give the patches 5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

For Muscle Pain "I had VERY severe pain from a pulled, overworked leg muscle, above & below my knee. Tried to get an appointment with my acupuncturist & my friend recommended I try the patches until then. They were exceptional in helping to alleviate my severe pain! Have read you should only use 3 patches, but my box illustration shows 4 on a person's body & this has worked great. The range of motion in my leg is getting better every day. Am a very happy customer!"

"Over the years, I have tried various pain patches, but I was disappointed with them. I decided to try Salonpas patches, and they ARE FABULOUS! I have been able to postpone rotator cuff surgery since using them. Also, I took a bad fall and broke my left arm, and because I tried the Salonpas patches, I am getting a tremendous amount of pain relief!"

For Osteoarthritis "I prefer the older white patches as they stuck all night . But I will say they take my pain away in about 1/2 hour and works great ! They need to make their patches stick better ! Call customer service and they are rudeu. I buy patches and use them but wish the white ones were back for people NOT allergic to latex !"
