For Parkinson's Disease "My patient has been on Neupro for the past month and 2 weeks and takes Sinemet thrice a day. His extreme decline in cognitive and mobility issues began in December prior to Christmas. By the second week in January, his level of deterioration was severe. He couldn't do anything for himself any longer. Doctors were baffled, tests revealed nothing. Nobody had any idea until we observed a very slight tremor! There it was, our answer: Parkinson’s. He was given Sinemet, and immediately we saw some improvement and the diagnosis we were trying to find! He was placed under the care of a brain trauma specialist who promptly wrote a prescription for Neupro. We were stunned at the price and had to depend upon community resources to get it. Now, 6 weeks later, my patient is close to being the way he was 1 year ago prior to this nightmare. He was a man with few symptoms and very active. Now, he can go without using a wheelchair or walker and can talk, reason, and function again. WOW!"

For Parkinson's Disease "Severe reaction, but I am allergic to sulfur-based drugs. Lasted under a week. Shakes gone the first few days, but came back as I developed a reaction."

For Parkinson's Disease "I have had, so far, a wonderful response to the Neupro, 8 mg. I barely feel tremors, which was an issue when I took rasagiline by itself. I now take both and am grateful for these meds."
