User Comments about Qutenza

29 Jan 2011

The SEVERE sunburn effects are painful and not relieved after the procedure. I applied Benzocane which helped. I do not recommend this procedure without pain medication administered during and after this procedure and RECOMMEND the Benzocane immediately after removing this patch.

Qutenza patch 8% was TOO intense for average person. I applied Benzocane to relieve the sunburn effect. I do not recommend this product without pain medication administered. This medication was administered under medical supervision but needs to be evaluated for SEVERE sunburn effect although it does relieve pain, the side effects need to be monitored with pain medication and skin effect. I think the SEVERE sunburn effect is extremely painful and not for use for the average person. Benzocane helped relieve the sunburn effect but the heat intensity of the pepper is a SEVERE burning sensation and pain medication administered DURING this procedure.
