Pleroma Patch – PERIOD

  • straål-in

R279,00 incl VAT

Meet South Africa’s first vitamin-infused topical patches, Pleroma Patch.

This topical patch is designed to help with menstrual discomfort with ingredients targeted for relief of cramps, bloating and mood swings. Each pack contains 24 patches.

3 in stock

A proudly South African brand, the word ‘pleroma’ symbolises completeness, fullness, and wholeness, often in a spiritual or divine sense. This patch is specifically formulated for relief of period symptoms.

💡Transdermal patches work by leveraging the skin’s permeability and the patch’s structure. They contain active ingredients in a reservoir or matrix, held in place by adhesive. The ingredients are designed to pass through the skin’s layers into the bloodstream for steady absorption, reducing the need for frequent doses and avoiding concentration spikes. This method also minimises side effects compared to oral delivery.

External use only; do NOT ingest. Not suitable for children.
Wash and dry the application area (avoiding lotions or oils), peel off the protective film. Apply the patch to a flat, hair-free area such as the inner wrist or back of the shoulder. Wear it for up to 8 hours during activities or sleep, and then remove and dispose of it responsibly. This item is single-use only.
