Equate Medicated Pain Relief Patch, 60 Count, Compare to Salonpas® Pain Relieving Patch Active Ingredients

works very well for trigger point, joint pain/discomfort. Very easy to apply by myself, price is good. Easy to remove but stays on until it's removed. Big Plus for me is this particular brand doesn't burn, blister my skin like brand name ones does.

My hand joints are dislocated and I put this patch on because my hand aches so badly. I tried one of these and put it on the back of my hand. It helped a lot but my only complaint is that it wouldn't stay on at all, so that sucks. Now I'm not sure what to do with them but I'll probably try them again.

These work really well. They don't seem as strong as the brand name, but they're still good. It's really small sized, but even the brand name shrunk their products. I love how they come with ziplock pouches to retain freshness. They work great for muscle strain/pain. The adhesive stays on fairly well as long as there's no sweat or lotion or hair on the skin.

This is a good product. Its sad Walmart took this off the shelves in all the local stores. I guess they want you to buy the Salonpas which is twice as much as Walmart's product.

Just started using this item since I just got it delivered. It arrived a little crushed in the packaging. It seems to relieve the pain well for it's small size; however, it does not adhere to the skin as well as I would like.

These are strong and it's not difficult to get the plastic off the back once you figure out to just bend them in half. The real problem is that they don't stick. As soon as you move they start falling off. So if you plan on bandaging over the strips then they're a great deal. I do like that they are packaged in to three resealable packets. HOWEVER If you want them to stick like the name brand without any help then these are an epic failure and I can't recommend them.

They could work well, but they lack sticking ability. I used some from a dollar store, they worked great and stuck very well. I put one of these on less then 5 hrs ago, and it just fell off. I haven't even touched it. It can't work if it doesn't stay on.

Honestly, this is one of the only Walmart branded health items that unless makes a major overhaul I won't buy again. Even though the medicine in the patch works very well, the adhesive is almost non-existent, and considering I need to use some sort of pain patch to ease my chronic pain in certain areas at night, I have had it falling off since I put it on. It's a shame because the actual medicine I can feel more than the name brand.

they are horrible.. some you cannot get off the adhesive, they don't stick very well and come off when you don't want them too.. Absolutely not a good product.. I'll stay with salonpas , at least they work with no problems at all

Good luck keeping these on your skin. Will fall off in half or less than the 8 hours promised. Even much less time if you perspire. Very didappointed.
