How to Use Pure Patch Recovery Patch
Learn how to use Pure Patch Recovery Patch: placement, up to 12 hours of wear, removal and adhesion tips for a simple antioxidant-support routine.



Apply one Pure Patch Recovery Patch to clean, dry, hair-free skin, wear it for up to 12 hours, then remove it. Choose the inner forearm, outer arm, shoulder, leg or hip, and rotate placement each time. This guide covers the practical steps for making Recovery part of your routine.
Developed with pharmacists, Recovery is our antioxidant-focused formula with glutathione, NAC, DHM, a B-complex blend, CoQ10 and black pepper extract. There is no powder to measure, drink to prepare or capsule to swallow.
How to use Pure Patch Recovery Patch
- Choose clean, dry, hair-free skin. Placement options include the inner forearm, outer arm, shoulder, leg or hip.
- Peel one patch from the backing and place it on your skin.
- Wear it for up to 12 hours, then remove it.
- Rotate placement each time. Use warm, soapy water to wash away any adhesive that remains.
Avoid the abdomen and inner bicep, where rubbing can interfere with the fit. Choose a spot away from clothing seams or other friction, and let the skin dry fully before application.
Pair application with a regular moment, such as getting dressed, and set a reminder to remove it within 12 hours. The 12-hour limit is wear guidance, not a promise of a particular duration of benefit. Stop use if irritation occurs.
What if the patch will not stay on?
Check that the skin is fully dry and free of lotion or oil before applying. Choose a hair-free area away from clothing seams, with enough flat skin for the whole patch to make contact. If a spot keeps rubbing, choose another of the recommended placement areas next time.
What is Recovery Patch designed for?
Recovery is the antioxidant-focused option in the Pure Patch range. Antioxidants participate in the body’s systems for managing reactive molecules from normal biological activity. That is the formula’s theme; our Recovery antioxidant ingredient guide explains the compounds and research. NIH’s antioxidant explanation.
What is in each Recovery Patch?
| Ingredient | Amount listed per patch |
|---|---|
| DHM | 10 mg |
| L-glutathione | 5 mg |
| NAC | 5 mg |
| B-complex blend | 2 mg |
| CoQ10 | 1 mg |
| Black pepper extract | 0.5 mg |
DHM stands for dihydromyricetin. NAC stands for N-acetyl cysteine. The B-complex amount is for the whole blend, not each vitamin separately. These quantities describe the patch’s formula rather than a measured absorbed dose.
How is Recovery different from the other patches?
| Patch | Formula focus | Featured ingredients |
|---|---|---|
| Recovery Patch | Antioxidant-support routine | DHM, L-glutathione, NAC, B-complex blend |
| Sleep Patch | Melatonin-free nighttime routine | Magnesium glycinate, L-theanine, apigenin, GABA |
| Energy Patch | Daytime energy routine | Caffeine, L-citrulline, L-leucine, electrolyte blend |
| Focus Patch | Mental clarity and focused work | Alpha GPC, L-tyrosine, theobromine, Lion’s Mane extract |
Each product has its own formula. A bundle lets you purchase different patches together; it is not an instruction to wear several formulas at once. Review the directions for the product you choose.
