What Next?
She hasn't tried the
rotigotine
patches but im sceptical in her trying these as I'm worried the same thing will happen, work for a few months and then symptoms re start.

Augmentation issues
Also, my doctor has suggested a slow transition from ROPINOROLE to
ROTIGOTINE
which seems to also be a dopomine agonist. Has anyone got any other recommendations? On the plus side, my restless legs have been great since I reduced the dose.

Help With Starting point with Cannabis
Iron is now over 90, and tried tramadol and codeine which didnt do a lot, and the final option he has asked the GP to give me is a
Rotigotine
patch. In the letter he also suggested that Cannabis has been known to help, so I thought I would try that.

Advice on Rotigotine Patches
Currently on 5 x daily madopar 100/25, and until recently
rotigotine
patches. Recently the patches have produced a massive skin reaction, pure solid blister and pus (sorry), so have stopped using them. Just wondered about other peoples experiences?

My life controlled by RLS
I wear a Neupro 3mg/24hr transdermal patch (
rotigotine
) works some of the time. Ive developed an allergic reaction to the patch. This condition is slowly destroying my life. Im lucky if i get 15hrs sleep a week. I cant visit the cinema or eat out. Driving is problem.

Does Rotigotine cause insomnia like Ropinorole?
Has anyone tried
Rotigotine
and does it cause insomnia like Ropinorole?

Mirapexin Prolonged-Release
And before that I was for years on Pramiprexole and later on the
Rotigotine
Neupropatch. It was also discovered the Gabapentin was not good for my eyesight so my Neurologist suggested PR Mirapexin and helped me to taper down the Gabapentin by 300 mg every two weeks.

Coming off pramipexole
Since then I've tried
rotigotine
patches and gabapentin without much success. I'm now on 300mg of pregabalin. Although I'm not cured, my RLS is much less pronounced during the day and evenings. I am also getting more sleep - 6/7 hours.

Stopping Ropinirole
Then I can start
Rotigotine
patches. I know some on this forum say these "dopamine agonists" are not good, but this is what my specialist and my GP recommend (this discussion was on the phone due to the current crisis), so I want to follow their advice. 1.

RLS - What worked for me
My doctor recommended neupro (
rotigotine
) transdermal patches, and I was very skeptical because, well the idea of medicine being delivered through your skin barrier, a barrier designed to keep stuff out seemed a bit far fetched.

More and more
Although I have found a lovely specialist nurse, he hadn't a clue about
Rotigotine
patches for RLS. And then of course there's the dredded fibromyalgia fog, That seems to attack us when we need it least. To have it is to know it ! What can we do to make this illness more people aware, Look.

rotigotine Vs ropinerole
Hi all, Does anyone here have any experience with
rotigotine
patches? In particular the difference between these and ropinerole. I am currently on Requip 2mg, and while these do appear to be working, they make me so tired in the evening and hard to wake in the mornings.

Is a combination of drugs the answer?
Having been on Prami for years, I tried Ropinerole which did not work for me so the
Rotigotine
(3mg) Neupropatch was great for a while until this summer when clearly augmentation set in again.

Rotigotine and weight gain
I know
rotigotine
can cause weight gain, probably worse now that I'm taking 2 patches! Has anyone else noticed weight gain on the patches? Also can they stop working meaning you need to keep increasing the dosage?

Gabapentin/Neupro
I was wondering if anyone has experience of Neupro
Rotigotine
patches. I successfully weaned myself off Mirapex from Nov last year, into March this year.
