Hi Gil,
I'm one of the ones that swear by them. It's roughly a 4x8 self sticking patch containing lidocaine, I suppose trans dermal, that you can wear up to 12 hours (off 12 hours) at a time. I prefer these to meds during the day. I also use them preemptively if I know I'll be doing something that it taxing for me. My pm swears by them too. But then again, not all meds help all people.
Dale
