Anyone using Neupro patch for part of the day?
I’m considering something I’ve never heard of: applying the
Neupro
patch for about 12 hours. The 2 mg patch is no longer sufficient (even with gabapentin or pregabalin). But the 3 mg patch feels too “druggy” during the day. Would it work to apply the 3 mg patch at, say, 6 pm and remove it at 6 am?

When to apply Neupro patch
It comes in the patient info folded up in each
Neupro
package (also here: https://images.rxlist.com/images/rxlist/neupro3.gif). I note that rotigotine level seems to be at maximum in the body around 15-20 hours after application.

Whole Body RLS
I wear a
NeuPro
patch and take Clonazapam regularly, but sometimes, it just doesn't do any good. Any suggestions?

When to take pregabalin (Lyrica)
I also am on the 2 mg
Neupro
patch. A few questions about Lyrica: - What time(s) of day do you take it? And please state whether you take it to control evening/night symptoms only, or are looking for 24-hour control.

give it a try
One of the many, many drugs I had which actually helped was
Neupro
, which was the 3rd dopamine I had tried. I was on a 6mg patch daily but after a month I had not a single place to put the patch. Now 8 months afterwards I still have marks from the patch.

Trials
Since 2012 I continuously tried various approaches and gauged or judged the benefit: sinemet, coconut oil, amantadine, keto diet,
Neupro
patches, mucuna, plus other park drug's name I cannot recall. This list could be longer. In all I never experienced placebo effect nor notable improvement.

Neupro
Last evening for the first time in ages my left leg got very agitated. I started worrying that the meds were losing their effectiveness but on checking later I found the patch had come off! Slightly annoying but it seemed to prove that it works!!

Just curious
Here is the drug regime he put me on: 1
neupro
patch every 24 hrs. plus Horizant with the patch. Somehow they work together. Clonazepam (1 1mg tablet 3 times a day), belsomra at bedtime. I have slept like the dead for the last three nights, but I also feel like the dead all the next day.

CBD oil
I am currently on Lyrica and Tramadol having just come off the
Neupro
patch. This is helping but not 100%. I live in France but at the moment am in England for 2 weeks, so I prefer a British or French supplier. Thank you.

Oxycodone/Naloxone
He tried changing diet and several drugs- most recently the
Neupro
patch which offered some relief. He just had open heart surgery to repair a valve. For several days after surgery there was no restless leg. Now it has come back.

Need help!
Under pressure, my doctor put me on a Dopamine Agonist (
Neupro
patch) 2mg/24h. I had a great night for the first time in 3 years but was awfully nauseous the next day and had to go back to bed and slept until 2:30p and also slept at night even though I didn't put on the patch.

Using tramadol
My neurologist is trying to wean me off the
neupro
patch and currently I am taking 2700 mg of gabapentin, 1 mg
neupro
patch and 2-50mg tramadol tablets. Once I started with tramadol my restless leg went entirely away. My question is whether anyone has been on tramadol long term.
