How Does It Work?
Our transdermal patch is a medical-grade adhesive patch that is placed on the skin to deliver a specific dose of organic Thiamine (B1) through the skin and into the bloodstream. An advantage of the transdermal delivery route over other types of delivery (such as oral) is that the patch provides a controlled time release of the vitamins into the individuals' bloodstream. It is best that the patch is applied to your skin in a clean, hairless area. The patch will begin to release the vitamin into your system and continues to do so for about 8-12 hours. Absorption rates vary depending on individual.
Where is the Best Place to Apply the Booze Bandage?
The best area is a clean, hairless area on the body. We always suggest inner forearm, lower stomach, inside of bicep, or on your butt. Essentially any area that your skin is as hairless as possible, and not flexing or bending with every movement.
Is There a Wrong Way to Apply the Patch?
YES! If you look at any of our product pics you can clearly see there are 2 layers to the patch. The top layer is the logo sticker and is not made to be removed, the second layer is the actual vitamin patch. If you are able, or accidentally remove only the top layer (the logo sticker) and apply just that you unfortunately will not get any effects of the vitamin patch you removed it from. Simply peel off the backing leaving both layers of the patch together and apply to your skin as one piece.
