Emsam Patch (active ingredient: selegiline) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Major Depressive Disorder: Emsam Patch is used for the treatment of major depressive disorder in adults.

Emsam Patch belongs to a class of drugs known as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), which work by increasing the levels of certain chemicals in the brain that help regulate mood.

Emsam patch is applied to clean, dry skin on the upper body (torso), upper thigh or on the outside of the upper arm. The patch is left on for 24 hours and is replaced with a new patch every day. To use the Emsam patch, follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider and the information on the prescription label.

Remove the old patch before applying a new one, as only one patch should be worn at a time. You should also choose a new area of skin each day to apply the patch to prevent skin irritation. Use the Emsam patch exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not use more or less of it or use it more, or less, often than recommended. It may take some time for the patch to start working and continue using it as directed even if you do not see immediate improvement in your symptoms.

To start treatment with selegiline (Emsam), a typical starting dose is a 6 mg patch applied to the skin once every 24 hours. The maximum dose for Emsam is 12 mg every 24 hours.
