Max Strength Lidocaine Pain Relief Patch (5 Count) for Back Pain, Odor Free Pain Patches

Excellent pain relief. It’s main ingredient is lidocaine, which numbs the are that it touches. Although it does not decrease inflammation or solves the issue causing the pain, it gives you relief without smelling like menthol. It’s sticky enough for it to stay on all day.

This thin patch stays on very well. If the corners curl while you're putting the patch on, you can uncurl them with no problem. It really relieves pain. I prefer Aspercreme over Salonpas. It is thinner, easier to apply, and does not come off at the edges or curl once you've put it on as the thicker Salonpas patch does.

Does the job by providing needed relief, but the patch doesn’t stay flat. It rolls and peels.

Only thing that helps with my sciatica.

I had been using another brand from a pharmacy chain. I tried the Aspercreme patch, again, and was very impressed with a few new revisions. These revisions have improved my impression of this product. The individual patches are a bit stretchy. The backing has a perforated line down the middle with instructions to stretch the product by holding each end so the perforation splits the backing into two pieces. Take the corner of backing and remove one of the sides. I place the patch at this point. One adhered, I remove the 2nd half of the backing, which gives me the best results. If you aren’t very careful, you can easily end up with wrinkles in the patch where the patch sticks to itself and reduces the surface area of the patch against your skin,...which means less active ingredients being absorbed. The improvements that I noticed were the thinner dimension of the patch. I noticed the logo and name “embossed” onto the non-active side of the patch. Also, I’m not sure, but if the patch had the traditional aspercreme fragrance before, it does NOT have it now. This current patch is absolutely fragrance free. Along that same theme, if the patch had the traditional warming experience before, this newer patch does NOT, which is something the majority of patches don’t have either. There are plenty of warming crepes out there. As a user of lidocaine patches, I want reduction in pain, no odor, no cooling or heating sensation, no oily residue, or any other sign that a patch is being used. I’m delighted with the revisions. I will be purchasing again. They are great!

I use the Lidocaine patches daily. I think this brand charges more for the name. I am not sure how well they work. This brand has a larger patch that tends to stick on itself too many times & it rolls off when I pull my pants up. I only buy this one on sale.

I've used the Salonpas 4% Lidocain® since a back injury in February 2020 and they just weren't available. The product information and reviews offered Aspercream as an alternative. In comparison to Salonpas: slightly thicker pad, same type adhesive and delivery system, ease in application, odor free, non-irritating, slightly less effective pain relief, shorter acting. Aspercream 4% Lidocain®: longer acting and immediate pain relief. Less expensive. Remember that individual experiences will vary! In all honesty, there are only a very few differences! I'm very pleased with the slightly better, longer lasting pain relief and I'm going to try some of the other Aspercream products. Back injuries can be difficult to treat especially when the damage is permanent. Oral medications cause dependency/addiction, usually intefear with normal brain function and should only be used on a short term basis. I wear a light weight back brace for support and I had it designed to allow for use over a patch. At my age (75), I'm fortunate not to have developed arthritis YET. Gave a friend with severe arthritis 2 patches to try and he was delighted with the results. Remember to consult your physician or surgeon for an accurate diagnosis and ask if pain relief patches can help!
