Hi all
Anyone on Rotigotine patches and what is your experience of them? Started feeling a little sick and have occipital headaches. Any advice grateful

Many thanks

I tried Rotigotine patches but asked to come off them after3 days as they made me feel really strange and I felt tearful and edgy - almost like having a personality change. Subsequently started on co-careldopa which works really well for me. Maybe ask if you can try something else. Reactions to medication can vary enormously so definitely worth having a chat with your consultant, GP or Parkinson’s nurse Good luck!

Hi there Coo
I found the neupro patches didn’t agree with me at all. Made be feel very nauseous and I had to give them up. Take care.
