Duragesic Patch Reviews
Working / Worked
Worked perfectly but stopping using them was one of the most difficult things Ive ever done. I dont plan on using them again once the baby is here.

I was on Fentanyl Patches for over a year. I got pregnant in July and had to be weened off of them. It was the hardest thing I've ever done. I officially stopped using them last month but still experience withdrawals if I do not have Lortab to take to combat them. They worked really well but I am going to choose to never go back on them again unless my MS or Fibromyalgia progresses further and I can not find any other medication to work.

I have just transitioned from the patch to oral meds. If you are working, don't use the patch. Didn't work!!!!!

This worked great until my Dr. took me off of it cold turkey due to a manufacturing problem with the 25mcg although I was on the 100 mcg. this cost me a visit to an ER for withdrawal. Wish I could get back on it, it wored better than the Kadian I'm on now.
