How should I use Oxytrol?

This medicine is for use on the skin. Follow the directions on the prescription label. Find an area of skin on your abdomen, hip, or backside that is clean, dry, greaseless, undamaged and hairless. Remove the patch from the sealed pouch. Do not cut or trim the patch. Using your palm, press the patch firmly in place to make sure that there is good contact with your skin. Change the patch two times per week, keeping to a regular schedule. When you apply a new patch, use a new area of skin. Wait at least 1 week before using the same area again.

Talk to your pediatrician regarding the use of this medicine in children. Special care may be needed.

Overdosage: If you think you have taken too much of Oxytrol contact a poison control center or emergency room at once. NOTE: Oxytrol is only for you. Do not share Oxytrol with others.

What if I miss a dose?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you can. If it is almost time for your next dose, take only that dose. Do not take double or extra doses.
