How to use the VIRA GLP-1 Patches

One patch a day, worn for 8 hours. Here's how to get the best absorption and a comfortable wear.

Where to apply

On clean, dry, hair-free skin. The best spots:

  • Inner wrist or forearm
  • Upper arm
  • Hip (especially the outer hip)

How to apply

  1. Clean the skin with water and let it dry fully. Avoid lotions, creams, or oils at the application site — they'll block adhesion.
  2. Peel the backing and place the patch gently on clean skin. Don't stretch the skin as you apply.
  3. Press for 10 seconds to secure it.

How long to wear it

8 hours daily is the sweet spot. Many customers apply in the morning and remove before bed, or apply at night for overnight absorption — whichever fits your routine.

Apply around the same time each day. Consistency matters more than exact hour.

Removing the patch

Gently lift from one corner. If it's stuck:

  • Moisten with warm water or a drop of oil — it comes off painlessly
  • Or remove during your shower

What to avoid

  • Don't apply over broken, irritated, or recently shaved skin
  • Don't wear two patches at once
  • Don't wear longer than 12 hours a day — more isn't better
