Active ingredients commonly found in Transact Medicated Patches include menthol and salicylate-based analgesic agents designed for topical pain relief. The patch construction typically features a medicated hydrogel or adhesive layer, a breathable fabric backing and a protective release liner. Exact formulation and ingredient concentrations may vary by product line — always check the product packaging or leaflet for precise ingredient information and allergen details.

1. Clean and dry the skin where you plan to apply the patch. Do not apply to broken or irritated skin.
2. Remove the protective liner and apply the patch directly to the painful area, smoothing down edges for secure adhesion.
3. Wear as directed on the pack; many medicated patches are intended for single use and provide relief for several hours. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for maximum wear time and frequency of application.
4. After use, peel off gently and dispose of responsibly. Wash hands after removing the patch unless treating the hands.

Transact Medicated Patches are suitable for adults and older adolescents seeking topical, non-oral relief from muscle strains, lower back ache, sports-related soreness and mild joint discomfort. They are popular with people who prefer targeted, convenient pain control without systemic side effects. Check the packaging for age limits and usage guidance before use in children, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals.

Read and follow all label directions. Cautions include: do not apply to broken, inflamed or infected skin; avoid use if you have known sensitivity to menthol, salicylates or adhesives; do not use with heating pads or other heat sources. If irritation, rash or excessive redness occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Seek medical advice before use if pregnant, breastfeeding, or if you are taking anticoagulant medication or have a history of salicylate sensitivity. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
