c.Cut the patch in half to reduce the dose
d.Place it over a skin fold or irritated area

The previous patch must be removed and disposed of, the skin cleaned and dried, and a new non-irritated, hairless site chosen to ensure proper absorption. Leaving old patches on can cause an accidental overdose, and patches should never be cut.
