Hi
Is there anyone using Rotigotin patches that could answer my question please?
I started using these patches approximately 6 weeks ago - increasing the dosage weekly from 2mg to 12mg. I reached the 12g dosage yesterday.
My question is: the patch I put on yesterday was on my right thigh and I was unable to sleep on this side last night. I could feel the Rotigotin going into my leg. Is this possible? I didn’t have any pain but I’d describe the sensation as uncomfortable and strange. Does this make sense to anyone please?

Hi wondering if you have had any other side effects. My husband has just been prescribed these patches side effect seem pretty severe and makes me wondering if the stiffness is better to have than side effects
I have been on these for the last year and apart from the itching i am more than happy with these. my quality of life is vastly improved. The only problem i do have is that the last batch appears to be a rogue batch as on 4 occasions the patch has come off whilst i am asleep. the problem is that i do not know when it came off and therefore how long i am without medication. i.e. if it came off at 1pm i am in more urgent need than if it came off at 6pm. As my supply only allows 1 patch per day with no “just in case” allowance this can lead to problems regarding the correct daily dosage.
