How to use of Roxonin® Tape?

Always take Roxonin® Tape exactly as your doctor has told you. You should check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.1

Open the bag containing Roxonin® Tape and then pick up one Tape from inside.2

After that, close the bag tightly again by gently pressing the two sides of the zipper against each other.2

The next step is to peel off the outer thin layer of the patch marked with number 12

Immediately after that, the adhesive part is placed on the site of pain as shown2

Finally: You can peel off the rest of the patch, referred to as Nos. 2 and 3, respectively, as shown while attaching the patch to the skin.2

Remember!

  • Do not remove all the thin outer layers at once before applying it on the affected area so as not to leave air bubbles between the tape and the skin.
  • Do not apply Roxonin® Tape onto area of damaged or non-intact skin or mucosal membrane.1
  • Do not apply Roxonin® Tape onto area of eczema and rash.1
  • Be careful to avoid areas with heavy hair, and if the site of the pain is wet or has sweat, wipe it first before using
    Roxonin® Tape.2
  • To get the maximum benefit, it is preferable to leave the tape for 24 hours on the affected area even if it becomes a
    bit wrinkled or crooked.
