What is Transderm Scop?

Transderm Scop is a prescription patch worn behind the ear to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness or recovery from anesthesia and surgery. It delivers scopolamine—an anticholinergic medication—continuously through the skin over 72 hours, providing sustained nausea prevention without the need to take repeated pills. It works by blocking the nerve signals from the inner ear that trigger the brain's vomiting reflex when the body perceives motion. It should be applied several hours before travel or a procedure for best effect.

Anticholinergic nerve blockade

Scopolamine blocks muscarinic receptors in the vestibular system and the brain's vomiting center, preventing the motion-related signals from the inner ear that initiate nausea and vomiting.

72-hour continuous delivery

The transdermal patch delivers a steady, low-level dose through the skin for up to 3 days—providing sustained protection throughout extended travel without requiring repeated dosing.

Pre-procedural use

Applied before surgery, it helps prevent the postoperative nausea and vomiting that commonly follows general anesthesia, improving recovery comfort without adding oral medications to a presurgical regimen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should I apply the patch?

Apply the patch at least 4 hours before travel or surgery — ideally the evening before. The medication needs time to absorb through the skin before reaching effective levels in the bloodstream.

How long does one patch last?

Each Transderm Scop patch provides up to 72 hours of continuous nausea prevention. For longer trips, it can be replaced with a new patch after 3 days. Only one patch should be worn at a time.

Why does my vision seem blurry after applying the patch?

Blurred vision and pupil dilation can occur if scopolamine from the patch contacts your eye — this commonly happens if you touch the patch and then touch your eye. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.

What side effects might I experience?

Dry mouth is the most common side effect. Drowsiness, blurred vision, dizziness, and confusion — particularly in older adults — can also occur. Confusion and disorientation are signs to remove the patch and contact your clinician.

Can I use the patch if I have glaucoma?

Transderm Scop is contraindicated in patients with angle-closure glaucoma. If you have any type of glaucoma, inform your clinician before using this medication — alternative nausea treatments may be more appropriate.
