I work in the UK, I’ve a certificate from the Department of Health allowing me to witness the destruction of OOD Controlled Drugs!
Yeah it’s so potent - I remember learning that Fentanyl also accumulates in fat and is released slowly.
Yeah that’s right each patch contains 12.6 mg Fentanyl.
Yeah I’ve heard of this too, but can’t imagine the adhesive being pleasant!
They’re for severe chronic pain that requires continuous long-term opioid administration!
Yeah so cool - never thought about it like before!
This was a Mezolar Matrix 75 microgram/hour transdermal patch. Expiry date 05/2014!
Yeah these patches are replaced every 3-days!
Yeah gloves on when removing from the plastic film for sure!
I know! It’s been expired longer than I’ve been a pharmacist! 😂
Yeah! Looks like snowflakes!
Oh I’d say you’re right!
Yeah - scary stuff!
Yeah it’s pretty cool! The lower strengths are TINY - always amazes staff when they see them.
Yeah scary stuff! Patch was expired from 2014!

Set up a recurring payment to them of £1 per week, you’re paying the debt but it’ll take about 5 months to pay in full. If you really want to wind them up, transfer £1 per month!
Other way is to transfer just a little shy of the full amount e.g., £19.99 and when they complain, you can say that surely they’re not complaining over a single penny!
If you do ever want to get rid of it, return it to your local pharmacy and they’ll destroy it for you.
The drug in this out of date Fentanyl patch has started to recrystallise
