I'am on 75 mcg of fentanyl patch jelly form. I found when i used the other fentanyl patches with the glue all over them i would break out from the glue. So what is the difference between the patches and do they work as well. I was told to use a steroid nasal spray under the patch before applying it, but everyone i've asked has never heard of using the spray before applying patch. So i've decided to just stay with the jelly form. Has anyone else had this problem and do the patches work the same jelly patches versus the ones with glue all over them. I'm still not getting much relief anyway, i've had chronic pain for some time and i'm only 52 but due to all my health problems i really don't have a life anymore. Sometimes i just pray for GOD to just take me, i don't want to live the rest of my life like this, If anyone has any suggestions or have been thru the problems with the patches please let me know.. Thankyou

Just the manufacturer, and preferred manufacturing process. However, both contain Fentanyl and will work similarly, for most people.

The FDA warns that Fentanyl carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as dizziness, dry mouth, constipation, headache, and nausea.

Does anyone know which company makes the jelly form?

If you're having an allergic reaction to the matrix glue that's unfortunate. In terms of the pharma, there's no difference. I'm on Mezolar patches by Sandoz - it's a matrix of glue and active fentanyl. The reservoir patches are an older form - maybe you're on duragesic - but the problem with the reservoir model was it was easy enough to remove all of the drug mixture and abuse it. With the matrix patches, this is less easy to do, and can't really produce anything people can manage to abuse.
