Patches, like MaxiDerm, are the latest fad in the world of herbal supplements and self-improvement. Many people find patches easier and more convenient than remembering to take a pill once or twice a day. Theoretically, dermal patches offer the sustained release of active ingredients into the bloodstream over time. Some patches only need to be applied every second or third day.
MaxiDerm was included in this study to analyze the effectiveness of a dermal patch compared to more traditional topical applications. Unfortunately, MaxiDerm did not impress our testers.

Dermal patch systems like MaxiDerm have a lot of promise in meeting the needs of those who like the convenience of not having to remember to keep the product close at hand. The other products we reviewed for this purpose are all topical preparations intended to be used in the moment - only MaxiDerm was an always-on patch.
Unfortunately, MaxiDerm did not provide much in the way of erection enhancement. Our testers reported that, about 45 minutes after applying the patch, the active ingredients didn't begin to work for nearly an hour -- and afterward, the effects simply faded away. We suspect that a deficiency in the mechanism of the patch itself was allowing all active ingredients to be released into the bloodstream at once, causing this effect. This is merely speculation on our behalf.
Due to the lack of reliability, MaxiDerm received a do not buy recommendation. There are superior products readily available for lower prices.
