Scott, it is all in the whatchacallit that comes in the package with the drug. PI sheet? There is a graph too. I don't know where the idea that 6mg =40mg. According to this package info, transdermally you get about 3 1/2 times the amount you get orally. So, 6mg orally=20mg transdermally. 9mg=30 and 12mg=40. This is why I didn't get the most relief until 12 mg patch as it takes 40mg for me to get enough MAOI A deanimation.
