Treatment of rash due to Excelon patch

You should contact your health care professional for medication advice, but be sure to vary the location where the patch is applied every time you put a new one on, and don't put a patch on skin that is red or rashy.  You can learn more about the patch itself at the Excelon website (http://www.pharma.us.novartis.com/product/pi/pdf/exelonpatch.pdf has full prescribing details).  Sometimes your pharmacist can help you with advice on over-the-counter creams, too, if you can't easily reach your health care provider.  Good luck - let us know what solution you find that works!
