I have seen a clinician at my doctors today and he has prescribed Butec 5 microgram patches. I have got to be monitored once a month. Can anybody tell me of their experiences of using these patches please.

I've never used them but I do know we have to be very careful with all strong pain relief. Here's what the EMC says about it https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/1983/pil
These patches contain a strong pain killer
Ensure that old patches are removed before applying a new one
Patches must not be cut
Do not expose the patches to a heat source (such as a hot water bottle)
Do not soak in a hot bath or take a hot shower whilst wearing a patch
If you develop a fever tell your doctor immediately
Follow the dosage instructions carefully and only change your patch on the same day and at the same time 7 days later
If your breathing becomes shallow and weak take the patch off and seek medical helpIf at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
