This work well. Deliver the lidocaine to my neck. The only con is the uneven adherence. Not every one in a box but hit or miss as to how well they stay on over night. Did all the usual, cleaning etc to no avail. Overall a good product.

I have been using these for months, I get the brand Lidoderm patches from my doctor, however even with insurance they are terribly expensive so I only get one box per month. I use these to supplement the brand patches, you can use 3 at a time as long as it’s 12 hours on - 12 hours off & you experience no skin irritation. The Amazon patch is surprisingly effective for the price point, as with all the generic lidocaine patches they’re 4 % instead of 5% lidocaine but I still get quite a bit of relief. It’s much thinner and flimsier than the brand and flops all over when you try to apply it. The saving grace is that the liner is split down the middle to help prevent it folding in half and sticking to itself. It still happens but it’s usually manageable. It will hurt, and possibly bruise, if you try to yank it off too soon because the adhesive is strong. If you need to remove it early just get it wet, it will make a slimy mess but will eventually slide off. I have included these in my arsenal of non narcotic pain relief, don’t want to go back to that if at all possible. They can be cut to size, and give some basic numbing relief for hours. To apply it in the easiest way possible, give a gentle tug to either side while holding in both hands, the liner will split and make it much easier to apply. Definitely worth a try for muscle and/or joint pain. Don’t do well with sweat, so skip wearing while doing anything strenuous that will cause you to sweat profusely. Otherwise I highly recommend!

As far as pain relief these seem to work as well as the prescription patches i was using immediately prior to using these. The drawback to these is the adhesive, the masking film, and how these are folded. The QC doesn't seem great and you can get adhesive sticking together out of the box. The price and effectiveness make it worth fighting the battle sometimes.

These Lidocaine patches were a huge help after I fractured my shoulder, wrist, and foot. Since a broken shoulder can’t be wrapped or casted, the patches made a noticeable difference in managing the pain. They’re easy to apply, can be cut to the exact size you need, and they have a pleasant scent.The pain relief lasts a good while, and I also used them on my wrist and foot. The package says to use only one patch at a time, so I had to rotate depending on which area hurt the most, but even then, they were very effective.

Size and Lidocaine strength are pretty much the same for any brand, but I've found a wide variance on adhesion between brands. If it doesn't stay in place, it's a waste of time and money, and these stick much better than those I have ordered through my insurer's OTC credits. If you need the patches, get these from Amazon and save the credit for other needs your OTC plan can provide!

I have received no remuneration of any kind from the seller, or associates. No coupons, or promises of a refund, no free product for a review, or any other type or kind. I have no connection with the company whatsoever except as a purchaser. I am not connected by friendship, marriage or business with the seller or their associates. I paid for this product with my own money and I am giving my honest opinion about the product and the retailer.Let me say, first of all, that generally speaking I am usually very satisfied with Amazon Brand products. This is the first time I have been even slightly disappointed with the quality of any of the Amazon Brand products I have purchased.I have purchased 2 different brands of 4% lidocaine patches this week. Amazon Basic Care Maximum Strength Lidocaine Patches come in behind the other brand. I need to use 2 patches on my knee shin area. I have a leg injury and about half my pain is nerve pain. The patches do work very well to relieve pain. But they won't stay stuck, and it is an aggravation to have to keep plastering them back down.The Amazon patches ARE effective pain relievers, and the pain relief does last a good long while. But! The adhesive leaves a lot to be desired. The other brand stayed stuck until I took it off. The adhesive on the Amazon brand starts coming unstuck at the sides and corners. I have to keep plastering it back down. It's a definite aggravation. The adhesive gel is not as thick, and not as sticky, as the other brand.Having said that, the Amazon brand has better pricing, you get more patches for your money, and they are effective pain relief. Just be aware that these patches tend to start peeling off long before 8 hours, much less the up to 12 hours claimed on the box. They would be better suited for someone that isn't going to be moving around a lot. If that is an aggravation for you. Try another brand.

these stay on for a full 12 hours, they're very cold when you first put them on. they work and will numb the spot they are on and a little around that area as well. I'm using them to help with nerve pain post spinal fusion as recommended by my doctor and have been pleasantly surprised. they work just like the ones in the hospital. the exterior is soft as well. doesn't pull on my hair too badly but I'd recommend making sure to not put on a hairy spot. I get some skin irritation to the adhesive but I feel like that's the case for any adhesive.

These aren’t as good as some name brands. Less pain relief and when removing the pad it leaves a sticky residue on your skin. It’s about 60-70% as effective as other brands.
