Skin Care Tips

We want you and your child to have success managing ADHD symptoms with Daytrana. Because Daytrana is a patch that you apply to your child’s skin, you and your child may notice mild skin redness (light pink to red) or itching. This is common when using Daytrana and in most cases, skin irritation disappears within 24 hours.

Below we’ve provided some tips that may help prevent skin irritation your child may be experiencing:

Remember:
To minimize potential skin side effects, use Daytrana as prescribed by your child’s doctor.

  • Alternate the hip on which the patch is work every day.
  • Always remove the patches gently from your child’s skin
  • If needed, oil-based products (e.g. petroleum jelly) can be used to loosen patch adhesive residue.
  • Follow up baths and showers with immediate application of moisturizers.
  • IMPORTANT: Creams and ointments should not be applied immediately prior to patch application.

If skin irritation worsens, discontinue use and call the doctor.
