ALL PRODUCTS
- Where and when should I apply my patch?
Patches should be applied to clean, dry skin. Avoid placing patches on your face, head, or any areas with broken or irritated skin. Some of the best spots include wrists, upper arms, shoulder blades, collarbone, back, hips, thighs, and ankles. Our melatonin patches should be applied only when you want to sleep. Otherwise you can apply our patches at any time, day or night! For sensitive skin, rotate patch sites (arm, back, hip, shoulder, etc.) — don’t use the same spot every day.
- Do patches expire?
Yes, our patches expire after 3 years. Each package of patches includes a printed expiration date on the back of the pack for you to reference.
- What happens if I leave my patch on longer than 12 hours?
Ingredients will release from the patch over the course of 8-12 hours, but if you forget to remove it, don't stress. Nothing will happen if you remove it after the 12 hour mark.
- Who can wear these patches?
Our Multi and Immunity Patches are formulated for children ages 2–12.
Our Kids Sleep Patch is formulated for children ages 3 and older. Use the Sleep Patch only under adult supervision. Consult your pediatrician before use.
- Are barrière patches third-party tested?
Yes, we third-party test all our formulas.
- Are barrière patches non-toxic?
Yes, our patches are non-toxic and free of latex, parabens, and fillers.

Our Kids Sleep Patch is formulated for children ages 3 and older. Use the Sleep Patch only under adult supervision. Consult your pediatrician before use.
- Are barrière patches safe for kids?
Yes. Our patches were formulated by pediatricians using safe, child-friendly ingredients and dosing.
We also conduct third-party testing to ensure quality and safety. We recommend consulting your child’s pediatrician to determine what’s best for their individual health needs.- What age group are your patches for?
Our Multi and Immunity Patches are formulated for children ages 2–12.
Our Kids Sleep Patch is formulated for children ages 3 and older. Use the Sleep Patch only under adult supervision. Consult your pediatrician before use.
- Can my child wear more than one patch from different fornulas at the same time?
Yes! Children 3 and older can wear one patch from different formulas (Multi and sleep, or Immunity and Sleep). Given the overlap in ingredients of the immunity patch and multivitamin patch, it is not recommended to wear both at once unless approved by your pediatrician.
- Can my child wear these patches every day?
Yes! Each of our patches was formulated with the daily recommended doses for each ingredient and is safe to wear every day when used as instructed.*
Please consult your child’s pediatrician if you have specific allergies or concerns around ingredients and usage.- What happens if my child wears more than one patch from the same formula at a time?
One patch per day is recommended. Accidentally using more may increase vitamin intake beyond recommended levels. Remove extras right away and contact your pediatrician if concerned.

HSA FSA
- What if I don’t have my HSA/FSA card available?
If you don’t have your HSA or FSA card handy, still select “Flex | Pay with HSA/FSA” as your payment method. Enter your credit card information and Flex will email you an itemized receipt to submit for reimbursement.
- My HSA/FSA Claim was denied. What should I do?
We strongly recommend checking with your HSA/FSA provider to see if a purchase is eligible prior to completing the purchase. However, if you believe your claim has been wrongly denied, please send over any response from your HSA/FSA provider to us so we can share it with Flex and receive guidance on the next best steps to take. Please note that employer-sponsored FSAs can determine what products are eligible beyond the IRS’s guidelines, so it’s extremely important to check prior to purchase.
- Can I purchase a product now and apply for FSA reimbursement in the next calendar year?
The ability to apply for FSA reimbursement in a future calendar year depends on the policy of the specific FSA provider. Most FSA administrators require that the purchase be made during the time of coverage. For example, if the FSA coverage is for 2025, all purchases typically need to be made and/or submitted for reimbursement within that coverage period.
- I mistakenly entered the wrong name and/or date of birth and need to get an updated letter. To whom can I reach out?
Please email support@withflex.com and they will reach out to their telehealth team to reprocess and send your corrected Letter of Medical Necessity.
- Why can’t I see Flex as a payment method?
If you were prompted to enter a verification code when logging in or at checkout, you’re likely using ShopPay.
ShopPay is Shopify’s express checkout option that lets you use your saved profile information across any Shopify-powered store. It speeds up the checkout process by skipping most of the standard steps.
Want to Use Your HSA/FSA with Flex?
If you’d prefer to check out using Flex to apply your HSA or FSA card, you’ll need to exit ShopPay. Here’s how:
- On the ShopPay screen, scroll to the bottom.
- Select “Check out as guest.”
- This will redirect you to the standard checkout process, where you can select Flex as your payment method.
- Can I use Flex for both one-time purchases and subscriptions?
Currently only one-time purchases are eligible. The Flex payment option will not appear for any monthly or quarterly subscription purchases.
