Has Anyone Experienced Tremors Stopping After Stopping NeuPro Patch?

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭
Lincoln, NE

My sister was on NeuPro patches for a couple years. We stopped them because of so much skin irritation. After a few days off the patches, I noticed that her rather severe tremors had stopped. Nausea also stopped. Has anyone else experienced this???

@newpro tremors stopping. I'm on patch 6mg. I don't have tremors with it but I do experience nausea though I don't know if it's from the patch or other meds like Sinemet. I have not experienced much skin irritation either so for now I'll just stay on but glad to hear your sister is feeling better😃

Always good to hear from others. Hard to say what causes the nausea - hope you can get it stopped as it makes you feel crappy and one has enough to deal with the PD

my dad has had to discontinue because they were causing sores (he is currently taking cancer treatments and the two are not compatible, obviously) His tremors have increased substantially, do you know of any other medication that can be taken orally to replace the Nupro?

Thought I had answered this but...She was definitely taken off gradually. She pretty much did it herself because she was removing the patches herself when they bothered her so much. She did this for several weeks before we just stopped them. Wouldn't do anything without specialist advice.

JulianneMcLeodHudson,
Neupro is the patch version of a drug that's name escapes me(it should be on the box).
It also comes in a pill form.
