Pain specialist gave me 5 patches to try, they are pretty expensive otherwise! Has anyone tried them and had success with them? My understanding is they only help localised areas by releasing local anaesthetic. If only they did an all over body wrap instead ๐Ÿ˜

My pain specialist just prescribed my Flector patches for inflammation. Its ibuprofen and they really work great. Expensive like your you talked about. 35 dollars for 10 of them. I guess there not one of the covered ones. My doc said they have cream too thats the same but cheaper. I may ask to try that one.

Hi janiegirl, i have just started using the flector patches and have great results from them. They sure are expensive. I was told there non formulary so there not covered like most. Makes no sense but either does the health system. Lol anyway i wanted to ask you what kind of laser do you have that helps with pain?
