Title: Can I use two 25mg patches instead of one 50g patch?
Post by: Nicky9000 on December 06, 2021, 06:24:40 PM

Hi all, sorry if this has been asked before but my GP has recently changed me from Estraderm MX25 to MX50.
I have some Estraderm MX25 patches left over and was wondering if I can use two 25mg patches at a time to use up the old stock?
Do two 25mg patches work the same as one 50mg patch?
Thank you

Hi yes, I think you can do that. x

Yes but put the second patch in a different place so your skin gets a break between patches.
