FAQ

  • How do I use Scopoderm patches to relieve symptoms of motion sickness?

    It is recommended that you should apply the Scopoderm patch five hours before you start your journey to receive the most positive effect. It will still have a positive effect if you apply the patch once you experience symptoms.

    To use Scopoderm patches, place the adhesive side onto an area of dry, hairless skin behind the ear and hold the patch down for ten seconds. Ensure you wash your hands once you have applied the patch.

  • What should I do if a Scopoderm patch comes off?

    If the patch unintentionally falls off you should clean the area of skin that you applied the patch to. You should not reapply the same patch and instead apply a new patch behind the other ear.

  • How long does Scopoderm last?

    One Scopoderm patch will control the symptoms of travel sickness for up to 72 hours (three days); if your journey lasts longer, you can remove the old patch and apply a new patch behind the other ear.

  • Can I drink alcohol whilst using Scopoderm?

    You should avoid alcohol whilst using Scopoderm and for at least 24 hours once the patch has been removed.
