I was given a free package of Sarna Bug Bite Patches. I was exited to try them as I have very sensitive skin to mosquito bites and generally end up with scarring due to itching. I recently moved to the country and we have a swamp on our property so the bugs are very bad. It didn’t take long for me to get bitten after these arrived in the mail, courtesy of Butterly. I itched it quite a bit and my skin got very swollen and inflamed. I put on one of the Sarna patches, and within approximately half an hour, the swelling was completely gone and the redness had pretty much disappeared. I was left with a pinprick sized spot on my hand. I kept the patch on for around a full day. When I took it off, the bite did not bother me anymore. The itch was gone.
One positive about them is that they are clear and matte, so unless you inspect closely, it is hard to even notice that it is there. Very discreet.
The one downside: if you were it into the shower, it’s starts dissolving into a gloopy mess.
All in all, if I saw these in Walmart, I would most likely purchase them and keep them around for when I have another really bad reaction.    -
