Help! Re itchiness and nic. patch

Could someone please tell me --if you find nic. patches (nicoderm Step 1-Clear) very itchy--does this mean you can't use it?

And might the non-clear be better? Want to use the patch, but not sure if I'll be able to....

Thanks in advance,

Leigh

I used the regular patches long ago and it only itched a very lil. But when I quit this time I started with the clear patch and went out of my mind with bad reactions.. IMO, the clear ones are awful..Hope this helps.

I am using Nicorette (not the clear one) 16hr patch and it itches in the morning for about 2 hrs, then its fine for the rest of the day. I noticed it depends on where I put it as well, it seems to itch more on my arm than it does on my tummy.
