Why can't you cover a Fentanyl patch with any type of bandage?

Bandages no--Bioclusive yes(see below)
The reason is a band aid or tape does not allow air to pass through. So the skin is starved of oxygen and the medicine begins to degrade and redden the skin. You will end up with a big red welt that can take days to go away. The increased heat is negligible as far as dosage delivery.
Ortho-Janssen Pharmaceuticals (the makers of Duragesic) have long offered a large transparent bandage (Bioclusive, made by Johnson and Johnson) that fits over the 100mcg patch for those having patch adhesion problems. Bioclusive patches are provided to Duragesic patients only, but you can buy them online or through a pharmacy. They're not cheap though - about $100 per box of 50.
