The release liner can further include a first portion and a second portion separated by a hinge. The first portion can be positioned to overlay the backing of the patch when the release liner is folded upon the hinge, and the second portion can be positioned to underlie the skin-contact adhesive of the patch. The method can include positioning the patch on the release liner, such that patch is located on one of the first portion and the second portion of the release liner; and folding the release liner about to locate the patch between the first portion and the second portion of the release liner.
