Hi Is anyone on evorel patches or has anyone been on them in the past?
I was prescribed them last week and only 3 days in , and have a couple of questions.
The doctor said if they come off, stick them back on but the leaflet say, use a new one, because it won't be effective anymore?
How long did they take before you noticed any benefits/drawbacks?
Any info or a chat about this would be good.

Thanks Karmac, I've been on the patches for a while now, I am now on Evorel 75, they are a life saver. All my symptoms have gone, dizzyness being the worst one.
I am back to completely normal, whatever that is!!
I found as you said that they stick well, haven't had one fall off yet, but once they are off, there's no way they would ever restick.
I intend to stay on them as long as they continue to work or the doctor says I have to stop, but that shouldn't happen for a long time.
What happened to you when you did eventually come off them??
Thanks for replying, not many people seem to have heard of these.
