Keeping this in view, how often can I use salonpas?
Remove the patch and apply a new patch 1 or 2 times daily if needed. Salonpas Pain Patch may be used up to 4 times daily or as directed on the medicine label.
In this manner, can you sleep with salonpas on?
For maximum effectiveness, Hisamitsu spokesmen recommend Salonpas be applied to the skin after a bath or shower and before sleeping. You also can hold one over a lamp for a few seconds and the heat seems to speed up Salonpas' penetration into the skin.
How soon should I expect pain relief after applying Salonpas® Pain Relief Patch? Pain relief generally occurs within one hour of application, but in some individuals pain relief may be shorter or longer. If pain recurs 8-12 hours after applying the first patch a second patch can be applied.
