Do you use PatchMD vitamin patches?

We recently started selling PatchMD vitamin patches in the new BariatricPal Store. I'd LOVE to get some feedback from our members who are already using this product. Have they worked for you? Do you find them to be effective and no longer need to take pills?

    I haven't started the study as of yet. I plan on posting here to recruit members who would like to be part of the study once we're ready.

    I use the anti-aging and multi vitamin patches in different places, and rotate the places every day. For example, one to each arm on Monday, one to each breast on Tuesday, etc. I haven't had any lab

  • I love my patches!! I'm eight months post opp and have used them since day one. So nice not to have to swallow or taste several Vitamins a day. All my labs have come back within perfect range. Sent

Thanks Alex!. If I didn't make clear it was their concern from studies about dermal delivery in overweight/obese with medications not Vitamins. Specifically, birth control was one and if you google you will see a few. They did acknowledge to me that it was not Vitamin Patches but patch delivery of meds that was their concern. I know there can be variation in recommendations but wanted to share what I was directed. It would be great if there are some independent clinical studies on absorption and vitamins for wls.

Where do we enter the coupon code?

You will see this option when you checkout.

Thanks a lot! I get really nauseous from vitamins so I'm hoping these work without the stomach problems.
