I found the patches stick better if I take a wet paper towel and clean the area well...Dry it well then put the patch on and rub it for a couple of minutes..Hope this helps !

Hi @A MyChronicPainTeam Member and @A MyChronicPainTeam Member MST is Morphine Sulphate Tablet it comes in a variation of strengths it is a slow release tablet so it is taken in 12 hourly intervals to help with the pain hope this helps x
