Experiences with

Neupro

Can or has anyone taken Neupro and went back to Mirapex without taking a vacation from Neupro?

Hi all, I've been very slowly tapering off Neupro for aroud 10 months and just a week ago I took my final dose which was a sixth of one miligram , down from 2 mg. I had been on the patch for around 5 years and augmented for many of those.

has anyone been on the Neupro patch and felt it made their tremor worse? I have been on it several months and while i feel it helps somethings it doesn’t help my tremor, i really feel it makes it worse (internal and external). Just curious of others experience

I have been on Pregablin just over 3 weeks now after finally stopping the Neupro taper. My dose at present as of Monday is 150mg. I take this at 8pm. However around midnight the RLS kicks in.. not the diabolical stuff as with Neupro, nevertheless severe enough to keep me awake.

I was on Tramadol, Neupro and pregabalin for nightly RLS and lots of pain. I had steroid injections on 9 January 2023 including into my sacroiliac joint - a week after this I began to get awful pain and was unable to walk without support from then until now.

Hi all, I have just been offered the Neupro patch to try to lessen off times and allow a longer sleep, less disturbed. Having looked at previous discussions here I am quite nervous about starting this patch. Is anyone using it successfully without any of the serious side effects?

Ich habe Probleme mit meinen unruhigen Beinen - hauptsächlich ständiges Kribbeln und Schwäche große Schwäche in den Beinen - und überlege, ob ich es mit GABA versuchen soll, denn Levidopa/Carbidopa und auch das Neupro Pflaster zeigen kaum Wirkung.

[u]Current attempts to end Neupro[/u] My doctors said last year the goal was to get me off Neupro and use an opioid instead. So in August I started 0.5 mgs of Suboxone (with buprenorphine).

On neupro patches not doing anything for my rls having another bad episode now god I'm at the end of my tether now can someone advise don't know what to do anymore

I'm on Neupro 2mg which still helps. 2 years ago I startet not to eat Gluten which helped a bit. Now I'm on e keto diet which also helps a bit. My plan is to stop medication once I'll be retired in about 2 years.

For now only Neupro help. Should I accept to continue on Neupro with opinoids? Also my sympthoms are worse on Summers Seasons, I don't understand why. I have benefits with reduced carbohydrates, but still have problems with RLS. I also lost 15 pounds, but didn't help.

We stopped the Neupro by first cutting the 2mg patch into 6 then 1mg patch in 4 & came off it over 2 months. Pure hell but she prescribed Codeine to help me through this.

A salutary article in today's Mail on Sunday about addictions on Dopamine Agonists.Dr Guy Leschziner confirms it's common and that UK doctors must warn patients about this when prescribing Ropinirole, Pramipexole or Neupro. We know they don't.

I’m finally off the Neupro patches with the help of 30-60mg codeine each night as I weaned off them. I’m now slow increasing pregabalin. I’m currently taking 100mg as well as 15- 30mg codeine as the pregabalin alone isn’t covering my symptoms.

How can I wean off 1 mg Neupro patch that I have used daily for years? I have severe RLS in my whole body 24/7 and also take 500 mg pregabalin daily ( spread out 2 1 2) and tramadol before bed.

Started off with neupro patches but over the years mainly ropinerole, stalevo , madopar and at night rivotril. I’ve recently heard one of the neurologist mentioning Parkin when he was looking through My file….what is the difference THANKYOU KIND REGARDS

I want to try to withdraw from the 2 mg Neupro patch as I fear I may be augmenting again, but don’t know what else to do to help with the first month of withdrawals as I cannot go through the terrible stomach-anxiety issues.

Hi, I'd written 2-3 months ago about trying to get off the Neupro patch. I'm also on 20 mg methadone. Thanks for all the helpful suggestions! I've been off of Neupro for about 6 weeks after being on it for nearly 10 years at 4 mg. I'm on pregabalin (100 mg) and I think it helped? Don't really know.

I have problems with my restless legs - mainly constant tingling and weakness in my legs - and am considering whether I should try GABA (as nutritional supplement), since Levidopa/Carbidopa and the Neupro patch have hardly any effect.
