Has anyone come off pramipexole and onto the Neupro patch successfully, without side effects? How did you do it?
Hello all. I may be beginning to not get a complete night's sleep on x3 0.088mg pramipexole. Lots of you sing the praises of the Neupro patch and I was thinking I could try that again (due for a meds review with GP soon). However, largely due to lack of understanding about how they work, I ended up on

Anyone having trouble with the Neupro patch coming loose ?
I have to pay for this very expensive treatment and am not happy that approx 15/20% of the patches have come loose after normal showering/ bathing

Blacklisting of RLS drugs in the UK: result of contact with my MP.
My MP had contacted the chief executive of my nearest NHS Primary Care Trust (PCT) to answer my concern over allegations that GPs were being discouraged from prescribing the Neupro patch and, possibly, pramipexole because of blacklisting due to the cost. Both meds are important to RLS sufferers. I have

Has anyone got hold of Neupro (Transdermal Rotigotine patch) in the UK, and had any success for RSL.
To continue on the situation with my 91yr old Mum. 1st thankyou to all who replied to my last question. She has been taking Cabergoline for 2 weeks now, alternating 1 to 2mg dose. It did seem to be having an effect, and she was able to sleep better, but then every now and then she will get nights when

More details about "slow release mirapexin" please.
Elsewhere on this site people have mentioned "slow release mirapexin". What is it? The reason I ask is that I presently take 3 x 0.088mg "normal" mirapexin before going to sleep and for a few months I have had an undisturbed night. Now it's wearing off in the small hours. It did this before, which was

Neupro Patch
Here in the US I believe that they have approved use of the Neupro Patch. Can anyone tell me if is worth trying. I was planning on asking my Dr, to prescribe it.

RLS symptoms only when asleep. Recent Polysomnography study were very disappointing. "off the wall" were consultants exact words ! Started Neupro (1mg) last week but no sign of improvement yet. If anything, I seem to be more tired during the day. Any comments or advice most welcome.

What happens if you stop using the Neupro patch suddenly?
One of my GPs is playing silly bu**ers and has not given me a repeat prescription for my 3mg/24hr Neupro patches. As I am going on holiday very soon I can't sort it out but am worried that a sudden withdrawal of this medication could have very serious consequences. Although I have enough Mirapexine tabs

What is the 'average' does for Neupro Patch?
Hello everyone, I don't write on here often but I read all the blogs regularly. I have a question please. I am on the Neupro patch, 2mg /24hrs. This patch has given me my life back after 3 hellish years of a non-life. I was on Ropinirole but badly augmented on it, before starting the 'miracle' patch

Has anyone had to use higher doses of Neupro?
Hi all. I've been on 3mg/24 hours Neupro dermal patches for a few months now. I fear that the effect (24 hour relief from RLS in the main) is beginning to wear off. I also wonder if my extreme tiredness could be a side effect of using them. In an attempt to stop the kicking and get some sleep, I'm commonly

Can I transport Neupro from Europe?
Since the Neupro patch is not yet back on the market in the US, I am considering purchasing it for a friend with PD in Germany on an upcoming trip. Does anybody know if I can do this legally?

What are the experienced side effects of Neupro patches?
Hello once again y'all. I'm finding that since starting Neupro patches I am more sleepy in the day than before and also seem to've itchier skin. Both these could be side effects of Neupro. However I already suffer from sleep apnoea and eczema so how would I know if it is the Neupro making matters work

what should I do?
after taking mirapexin without success. I went on to Requip, slowly increasing the dose until I got to 8 mg, then I started get hallucinations, sparkly vision,hearing voices, etc. I reduced down to 6 mg and all those unwanted symptoms went. Went to see the neurologist who decided dopamine agonists don't

Is alcohol a no-no with Neupro?
I am on 3mg of Neupro dermal patches and have probably literally had a sleepless night due to restless legs. The cause? Possibly a couple of glasses of red wine yesterday lunchtime. I know that alcohol and some meds don't mix but can anyone else comment on such situations? Am I doomed to a life of no
