Ok .... Quick question.
Has anyone come across the known usefull life expectancy of these patches ?
" 5 cm2 patch containing 0.78 mg estradiol (as hemihydrate) with a release rate of 50 micrograms estradiol per 24 hours. "
My pharmacist says 1 twice a week, as in one for 3 days then one for 4 days ... So I'm thinking why not just say 3 1/2 days ? Or if the patch just delivers less after 3 days, then leave it on for 4 1/2 days and get a little more out of it ? ( ie: two patchs for the extra 24 hrs )
Thoughts and comments appreciated.
