The patch was put on at 8:00a.m and supposed to be removed at 8:00p.m. what are the side effects for not taking off the patch.
I am supporting an individual and last night I totally forgot to remove the nitro-dur 0.2 patch?

After 12 hrs there is only about 6% of the medicine still there. The reason you take it off is to avoid a tolerance to the drug, that's the only side effect and one time isn't going to change the your tolerance.
