TRANSDERM-SCOP USES
This skin patch is used to prevent nausea, vomiting and dizziness
caused by motion sickness.
HOW TO USE TRANSDERM-SCOP
Place one patch in a dry area behind the ear at least 4 hours
before the effect is required. The patch will slowly release
the medication into your system over a period of 3 days. If
the patch becomes dislodged or another patch is needed, place
the new patch on a clean, dry area behind the ear. Use only
one patch at a time. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water
after handling a patch. If the medication comes in contact
with the eyes, blurred vision and pupil dilation can occur.
TRANSDERM-SCOP SIDE EFFECTS
This drug may cause drowsiness, headache or dry mouth. These
effects should subside as your body adjusts to the medication.
If they persist or worsen, inform your doctor. Dizziness,
stomach upset and loss of balance have been reported in a
few patients after the patches were removed. This occurred
most often in persons using the patches for longer than 3
days. In the unlikely event you have an allergic reaction
to this drug, seek immediate medical attention. Symptoms of
