How
should I change my patch?
When changing OXYTROL, remove the old patch
slowly and carefully to avoid damaging the skin. Once off, fold
the patch in half with the sticky sides together. Since the patch
will still contain some oxybutynin,
throw it away so that it cannot be accidentally worn or swallowed
by another person, especially a child, or a pet.
Gently washing the application site with
warm water and a mild soap should remove any adhesive that stays
on your skin after removing the patch. A small amount of baby
oil may also be used to remove any excess residue.
Rings of adhesive that become dirty may
require a medical adhesive removal pad that you can get from
your pharmacist. Alcohol or other dissolving liquids (nail polish
remover or other solvents) may cause skin irritation and should
not be used.
