How do I take Daytrana?

Daytrana is a transdermal patch that is applied to the skin. To apply, clean the application site, removing dirt, oil, and powder. Carefully remove the patch containing the Daytrana drug from its package, with the protective liner facing you; remove half of the protective liner to expose the adhesive and press it firmly onto the skin. Once adhered, hold it in place with one hand while removing the remaining half of the protective liner. Press firmly and smooth the patch to make sure it is completely attached. Dispose of the empty packaging. Wash your hands thoroughly both before and after the patch is applied.

What if I forget to take a dose of Daytrana?

If you forget to apply the Daytrana patch, do so as soon as you remember and are able, then resume the normal application schedule. Do not apply multiple patches to compensate for the one missed.
