How many patches come in a pack?

Each pack contains 2 individual Voltarol Heat Patches.

Can children use this product?

What should I do if I experience discomfort?

If you experience discomfort, redness, or burning sensation, remove the patch immediately. If symptoms persist, consult a healthcare professional.

Troubleshooting

Patch not heating up

Ensure the protective film has been fully removed and the patch is applied directly to clean, dry skin. Allow a few minutes for the heat to build.

Patch losing adhesion

Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application. Avoid applying over lotions or creams. Press firmly to ensure good contact.

Skin irritation after use

Remove the patch immediately if excessive redness or burning occurs. Ensure the patch is not applied too tightly or for longer than recommended. For sensitive skin, consider using a barrier or shorter application times.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Provides deep, penetrating heat for muscle relaxation.
Non-medicated, reducing the risk of side effects from topical analgesics.
Flexible and adheres well to the body for comfortable, discreet wear.
Offers sustained warmth for prolonged pain relief.
Simple to apply and remove.

Cons

Single-use only; requires purchasing additional patches for continued treatment.
May not be suitable for individuals with very sensitive skin or certain circulatory conditions.
Provides heat, not a cooling sensation, which some may prefer for acute injuries.
Effectiveness can vary depending on the intensity of the pain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To apply, open the outer packaging and carefully remove the protective film from the adhesive side of the patch. Apply the sticky side directly to the skin over the painful area, ensuring it lies flat and adheres well. The patch will begin to generate heat within a few minutes.

Compatibility: This product is designed for external use on adults experiencing back and shoulder pain. It is generally compatible with most skin types, but individuals with sensitive skin should perform a patch test first or use with caution. Do not use on broken skin, irritated skin, or skin with reduced sensation.

Care: This is a single-use product and should be disposed of after use. Do not attempt to reapply or reheat a used patch. Store unused patches in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the patch is removed slowly and carefully to avoid skin irritation.
