Hi stan, i found when i was using the Neupro Patch that the best place for them to work was my arms. Anywhere else on the body where they tell you to use, didnt really work for me either. I had to juggle around my arms to make sure i gave one arm a rest each day from the patch.

hi ELISSE thanks for your post at leased i know now it wasnt my imagination????

I normally use my arms as its the easiest areas to apply and have it stick to.

I sometimes use my chest and sides and have noticed no difference in its efficacy.

Tried and tested many times.
