Abstract:
1. A medicated patch used to extract toxins from a human body surface, said medicated patch comprising: a substrate layer formed from flexible material and having a substantially planar adhesive surface, said adhesive surface spanning along an entire top surface of said substrate layer; a receptacle centrally registered on said adhesive surface in such a manner that said receptacle becomes permanently affixed to said substrate layer, said receptacle having an outer perimeter equidistantly spaced inwardly from an outer perimeter of said substrate layer such that a continuous band of said adhesive surface stretches beyond said outer perimeter of said receptacle; and a poultice nested on said receptacle and confronting said outer perimeter of said receptacle, said poultice protruding upwardly and away from said substrate layer such that said poultice becomes intercalated between the human body surface and said substrate layer when a user affixes said medicated patch onto the human body surface, said poultice comprising a predetermined quantity of Nicotiana (tobacco) covering a top surface area of said receptacle and a water pellet situated on top of said Nicotiana (tobacco) in such a manner that said water pellet is prevented from hydrating said Nicotiana (tobacco) until a compressive force is applied to said water pellet for discharging and impregnating said Nicotiana (tobacco) with water; wherein said poultice is housed in an inactive and dry state during pre-application conditions, said poultice being adaptable to an active and hydrated state during application procedures such that said poultice can effectively extract toxins from the human body surface.
