How Long Does It Take For The Loriderm Patch To Leave Your System

My dad (85 years old) was prescribed the loriderm patch for severe arthritis back pain and I noticed after he wore the patch for a few days he started to halucinate and was confused and very nervious so at the hospital they took the patch off. How long does it take for the medication to get out of your system?

Hello, Marylou! How is your dad doing?

How long was he using it?

If he was only on it for a short period of time, then it shouldn't take more than a few days to be processed out.

That's an odd side effect, however, since this is a topical anesthetic that's actually very mild and very little of it is absorbed.

Are they sure it was from the Lidoderm? Is he on any other medications?

Did you Dad take the patch off every 12 hours and did not put another on until 12 hours had passed without on his body? If he did not take the patch off and kept it on for days that probably is what caused the problems.
