For Urinary Frequency "I get a bad reaction to the adhesive. The redness stays for weeks and itches so bad. I clean the area with acetone to remove the adhesive residue and then clean it with alcohol. Hope you guys will create one for sensitive adhesive like a sensitive bandage. The product helps with an overactive bladder, I just hope the itch and redness will go away. Been using this patch for a month."

For Urinary Incontinence "These definitely work. Day one I saw relief with the gotta-go-right-now feeling, frequency, and leakage. The downside is the patches rarely last four days, usually 36 hours to 48 hours, which makes them very expensive. They are itchy and cause redness where the patch is placed. The edges collect lint from your clothes, which makes the patch look dirty. They constantly get caught on your clothing and pull your skin. As they dry up, they begin to sound 'crinkly,' which could be embarrassing. The drying up can occur as soon as 24 hours. They are also not clear and discreet. The background is clear, but there are 10 logos printed across each patch. Very sexy."

For Urinary Incontinence "I truly believe it works at stopping leakage. I thought I had found a miracle cure, but I seem to be allergic and can't take the burning, redness, and rash. I have gone through a couple of boxes because it works so well, but six days after only a 24-hour use, I still have a terrible itchy red rash. I will still consider using it for special occasions. And I must agree, it is expensive."

For Urinary Frequency "So I have multiple sclerosis/frequent and urgent bladder issues. I used these patches for several years with very good results. Worked best for 3 days, wearing for 4 days not as good on last day. Adhesive stays on after removing patch and built up over a period of time, causing skin irritation and redness. Worked best on abdomen, not as well on buttocks. Did not stick well or stay on hip. I think the reason it didn't stay as well on hip and bottom was because of heat in those areas. Overall, very satisfied with the product."

For Urinary Frequency "In less than 48 hours, I developed extreme itching, redness, and blistering under the patch. I removed the patch, and there were large water blisters underneath. So, obviously, I discontinued using the patches. Out of $32.00."

For Urinary Frequency "Works well but had site reaction with each patch. Itching, swelling, and redness. Tried using Benadryl spray first, let dry, then applied patch. Patch then would not stick properly."
