I'm pretty prone to seasickness so I use the patch on my boat dives.. Question~ is the patch as effective if it's cut in half for a single days use? It seems wasteful to use a 3 day patch for just 1 day of diving, so by cutting it in half I should be able to get another day of diving at a later date.... right? HOWEVER--- the website (http://www.transdermscop.com/information.htm ) says not to cut the patch in half, but it doesn't say why...
So, it either (a) screws up the release of medication into your system when you cut it, or (b) the manufacturer says you have to use a whole patch each time so they'll make more $ because you have to refill your prescriptions more often.
Anyone know?
(getting a hold of my doc isn't an easy task, especially for a trivial question... otherwise I would've asked already)
