Hi, are Duragesic Patches Waterproofed? I fear they would stick off if I bath with them. Although, it’s claimed they are waterproofed, does it really work?

Always when I apply duragesic pain patches I have problems with them sticking to my skin. And I have use it for over a year. I found it improved if you apply also wound management adhesive covers. These can be found by manufacturer johnson & johnson. It is much better than any kind of tape. During the summer I had the most problems with the patches peeling off by themselves. Concerning their waterproof, they are really good. If you call their help center they will ship you in a few days free wound management covers to ensure that your duragesic patches function properly.
