I am writing to alert people, just as “Annette” had in April 2008, that the generic pain patch “Mylan” is the safest pain patch to wear. I have been using it for over a year now. I does NOT have the gel in it and thus, you cannot overdose. It is flat and it stays on better too.

I have searched to see if any recalls have been issued on this and I cannot find any. I believe it is because of this new technology.

Why don’t the “powers that be” just change them? Forget the gel, this patch works!!!!!!

I hope someone reads this and spreads the word. There are too many unnecessary deaths happening over such a simple solution!

I have been on the Duragesic Patch for three years due to chronic pain syndrom in my L4, L5 which pushed against my S1 nerve root. As well, the pain in the hip and entire c Spine and L Spine areas are herniated and bulging. I have made a point to walk a lot everyday to loosen up the joints to brgin each day.

Today I saw my neurologist for my monthly follow up. Uponf filling my Fentanyl with a generic named Mylan. THe patch is completely different. THere is no gel, it is just like the patched you see people wear for their hearts, etc.

It is fast acting and it all but eleminates the actual sources of the pain, Plus, the new patch is about 1 X 1` inches and appears to be even better than the gel fillerd pacthed,

Thank You and May God Blesss you eternally.
