Did anyone else have an anti-nausea patch to wear?

Wondered if it should be really sticky? My surgeon requires me to wear one 24 hours but mine isn't super sticky and I'm afraid it will fall off

I put my patch on 2 hrs prior to leaving.

They put mine on when I was being prepped for surgery. It stayed on for two days until the nurse took it off. Be careful not to touch the medicine on it...they told me it would cause blurred vision if you touch it and then touch your eyes. I just let the nurse take care of it, LOL.

Yes, and mine stayed on just fine. Put it on and forget about it until time to remove it.

I had one when I first got in the hospital and registered. I forgot it was there :).

I always get sick after surgery. Between the shot they gave me and the patch they put on while prepping for surgery. I had no problems. Patch was on for 2 days. Took off when released from hospital.

They will even stay on in the shower.

They gave me one when I was being prepped as well, and took it off before I left 2 days later...it lasted through a shower as well.

They put one on me when I was being prepped for surgery. And the blurry vision is true! I left mine on for days and my vision was totally blurry.

Was patched at the hospital and was told it would dilate your pupils if you touched it and touched your eyes.

I took mine off the next day. I had no nausea but was so tired I could barely keep my eyes open. Apparently that's a side effect.

Are you sure you peeled the back off properly? Those things are super sticky. At least the ones il had. I know that seems like a dumb question but I've had several and that stuff is very sticky! Maybe its a different brand.....
