My hubby's been on Neupro patches for years & they've worked well for him. He's currently on 10mg per day - 1 x 2mg & 1 x 8mg

He had DBS in 2012 so his dose is lower then the 16mg he was on. Hope this helps!

Hi, yes, husband did okay on Neupro patch, however, he became compulsive, gaming, working, kind of a little "manic", so be sure to take advice from family members if they observe any extraordinary behaviour.

I am on 4 mg patch for about a year now. I also take Rytary (time released C/L) and Azilect. I have been up to 6 mg, but feel better on 4mg. No bad effects that I can tell. I thought 4 mg was minimum for Parkinson's effectiveness. The 1 and 2 mg dosages are used for restless leg syndrome (but I could be wrong here).

I have been taking 4 mg Neupro for about 1 year. 4 years post diagnosis and taking Azilect and many supplements including small dose of Mucuna. I went to my annual appointment with the Neurologist last month and he made no change to meds, said I was doing well, little to no progression.
