I just got one of these, but really think the 100 will be just a little to much. Is it ok to cut this in half and only use 50mcg. I have a pretty high tolerance from being on chronic methadone. I have never actually worn one of these patches always just use them like a suboxene, but i have read that its a waste to eat these.
 
Please note that you are in possession of a 100mcg/h patch containing milligrams of fent and not just 100mcg.

To answer your question yes you can cut it in half and it will deliver half the dose transdermally. I do not believe they are useless buccally/sublingually but I could be mistaken. Perhaps try reading through these as found in the OD Directory linked in my signature.

yeah i realize this. I think the patch has like 10-12mg in the whole thing. Good to know its ok to cut in pieces to better dose, because i slapped on half of it. I tried a piece sublingually, but didn't feel much, still had some pain in lower back too. I am a little weary of sleeping with it on, i suppose if i feel to high tonight before bed i can always take it off.
 
Yeah transdermal half life will be longer as it's in your skin before your blood stream so there will be a delay after taking it off before you start to notice a drop (or even leveling off if you are still coming up).
