General Climara Pro Dosing Information
Some considerations for women using Climara Pro include the following:
- Climara Pro comes as a skin patch. It is changed once a week.
- Apply the patch to an area of clean, dry skin on your lower abdomen.
- Try to avoid placing the patch right at your waistline, as your clothes may rub against the patch and loosen it.
- Rotate the application sites so that you do not apply a patch to the same place twice in a row.
- If a little adhesive remains on your skin after removing a patch, some lotion or body oil can help remove it.
- Dispose of an old patch by folding it in half and throwing it away, out of the reach of children or pets. Do not flush it down the toilet.
- For the medication to work properly, it must be used as prescribed.
- If you are unsure about anything related to your Climara Pro dosage, please talk to your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist.
