    Hello All

    I was perscribed Lidocain patches to use daily by my Rheumatologist today. Im three years suffering with lower back pain.

    Im just wondering if anyone knows if they are covered by the Drugs Payment Scheme because I believe they are mad expensive and I am already over the 120 Euro mark as Im taking Lyrica.:eek:

    Also anyone any opinion on the patches - im to use them for 4 months to see if I get relief.....

    Thanks
