Equate Lidocaine Pain Relieving Patch 4% Lidocaine, 6 Count, Compare to Salonpas® Lidocaine Patch Active Ingredient

I used these to help with injured knees. I have the named brand and these ease the pain as efficiently as they do. The package is easy opening with the cut slot or using scissors. The inside covers that open from the middle is less easy to open than the name brand.

Recommended for my left arm's nerve issues. On the 1st day, I didn't think that it would do anything. At the end of the day I realized that the nerves weren't nearly as active as they were. I could move my hand without stabbing pain, same with my arm. Very happy with the results.

I need a knee replacement and I tried these to see if I get relief. I did indeed. It seems to work for over 8 hours for me and although the pain wasn't 100% gone, it took away the constant brain reminder. I got relief. You might want to pick up some paper tape to better secure it as they can roll on the edges. They do nothing for my husband, so that's why I suggest, it's worth a try.

Excellent product! I've tried about every OTC meds. %26 even gave Voltaren a try. This is 4% lidocaine %26 has helped me more than anything! I use tape or band aids to secure the patches. Esp. as body temp may be warmer it keps patch in place. I would put the equate next to any of the more expensive meds. It's been very helpful for my knee pain.

Wrap over my knee %26 stays on all day. Definitely helps to numb %26 gives surrounding tissues a chance to relax %26 promote healing. Disbursed pain from stressed lower back through Sciatic nerve down leg. No injury; incredible pain. Already feels better after 3rd patch. Ask your Dr. 1st.

The package as I could see it online didn't say GEL Patch. I do not care for these as they don't stick to my back as well as the cloth ones I usually get. I avoid them. So I am not happy it didn't say GEL Patch, so I ordered them. I will use them, but ---

the product is great. the delivery is a constant bat tle for me. i am elderly. and disabled. i write a delivery note and it. gets distegarded 50 percent. of the time. i can malnuver around when left at side door i cannot get out and back if left at front door. sometimes i have to wait to find someone to get my packages. please ask your drivers to read directions. they also ignore messages so i have to. use my walker to try and catch them not to leave front porch. m

I had a bad fall and fractured a rib. This has helped some but i wish the amount of lidocaine was higher. Its a little difficult to put on since its located near my back so a friend has been helping. Definitely not cheap and it won't help much if the pain is severe.

These patches were a good price. Easy open pouch. Easy to put on my leg. But it didn't stick on my leg for long. My leg was clean. After wearing it, I looked to see if it was sticking. Nope. I fixed it, but 5 minutes later, it was peeling. I did get out two bandaids to hold it in place. I've used other brands and they stayed on for hours. Didn't help the pain in my leg. Won't buy again.

I ordered these lidocaine patches for some back pain I was experiencing. The price was good, and it was easy to order/have delivered. The product is packaged well, and it's easy to open. However, the product itself didn't have any effect on me. Other than the fact that it was actually on my back, I couldn't even tell that it was there- no pain relief. As such, I wouldn't personally recommend this product. Maybe it's a “yours vs mine” experience, but it didn't work out for me.
