STICK IT TO PAIN IN 5 EASY STEPS

Once your doctor prescribes ZTlido, here’s how to apply the patch to your skin for powerful pain relief:

Select your application site. It should be a clean, dry, and intact area of your skin and the most painful area. If the application site is smaller than the unit, you may cut ZTlido with scissors before removing the release liner.

Remove the transparent release liner before applying ZTlido to your skin. Once you have removed the liner, apply ZTlido to your skin as quickly as possible. It’s important that this be done quickly. Be sure to apply the patch sticky side down.

Press the patch down firmly, including the edges, and use your fingers to smooth it out.

Wash your hands right away after applying ZTlido. Be careful not to touch your eyes until after you have washed your hands.

To remove ZTlido, fold it so that the sticky sides stick together. Throw away the whole patch or cut it into pieces. Dispose of it where children and pets cannot get to it. Wash your hands after removing ZTlido.

Remember, ZTlido is not a BAND-AID®; it’s a patch. You should not use it only when you feel pain.

For the best relief, make sure to apply ZTlido

Every day
For a full 12 hours
For at least 8 weeks

If the patch starts to lift off when wet, be sure to pat the patch dry, pressing down on the edges. Do not rub the patch.

Approved Use and Important Safety Information

What is ZTLIDO used for?
ZTLIDO is a prescription medicine used for relief of pain from damaged nerves (neuropathic pain) that follows healing of shingles. It is not known if ZTLIDO is safe and effective in children. A ZTLIDO topical system should only be worn a single time for up to 12 hours within a 24-hour period (12 hours on and 12 hours off).

When should I not use ZTLIDO?
You should not use ZTLIDO if you have had a reaction to lidocaine or other pain products like lidocaine or to any component of the product. Tell your doctor or pharmacist about any allergies to medications.

ZTLIDO may interact with other medications. If you take a medication for an irregular heartbeat or other pain medications, check with your healthcare provider before using ZTLIDO.

What Warnings should I know about ZTLIDO?

Accidental exposure: Used and new ZTLIDO topical systems can cause serious injuries to small children and pets from accidental chewing or swallowing. Keep new and used topical systems out of the reach of children and pets.
Lidocaine overdose: Applying topical systems to an area greater than recommended by your doctor or longer than directed by your doctor can cause side effects. Use ZTLIDO exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. Using ZTLIDO on skin that is cut or scraped or applying heat sources to a ZTLIDO topical system may increase the amount of drug taken into the body and could cause side effects, so only apply to intact skin.

Application site reactions: Skin reactions where ZTLIDO is applied can occur during or immediately after use.
Contact of ZTLIDO with your eyes: If ZTLIDO comes into contact with your eye, immediately wash out the eye with water or saline and protect the eye until sensation returns.
