If you are talking about Fentanyl patches, no you don't want to use another narcotic on top of that. Fentanyl is very dangerous and is only used for people with severe pain that does not respond to stuff like hydrocodone.

How can I effectively apply a warm patch for pain relief?

To effectively apply a warm patch for pain relief, first clean and dry the area where the patch will be placed. Remove the patch from its packaging and apply it directly to the skin. Make sure the patch adheres well and covers the affected area completely. Follow the instructions on the packaging for how long to leave the patch on and how often to replace it. Be cautious not to overheat the area or leave the patch on for too long to avoid skin irritation.


Is it safe to take vicodine after removing a Fentanyl patch?

Vicodin, like Percocet, is prescribed for patch users as a pain breakthrough drug. Normally, you'd take it in instances where increased activity has increased your pain level beyond the patch's control point (breakthrough) and you need something short term to handle the pain. You can also use it if you've waited a bit too long to change out your patch to a new one. It usually takes a while for a new patch dose to ramp up to where you're feeling the effects, so in those cases, you can use Vicodin to bridge the withdrawals until the Fentanyl takes effect.
