How Does the Exelon Patch Work?

The once-daily Exelon Patch can be applied at any time, day or night, with or without meals, as long as each patch is applied 24 hours apart. The medicine comes from one patch, composed of four, ultra-thin layers:

First layer is the shell

Second layer contains the medicine

Third layer is an adhesive

Fourth layer is the release liner, which is removed when you apply the patch

The Exelon Patch provides a continuous release of medicine. Since it's a patch instead of a pill, you can see that the medicine was given.
