I sleep better, have less muscle soreness/stiffnes and RLS is gone

Most voted negative review

2 People found this comment helpful

I have used Neopro since August of 2012 after having RLS since 2006 and trying various other medicines. Overl Neuopro had been the best at relieving my RLS symptoms than one other medicine. However, the patch can fall of very easily and for me it works better on certain parts of the body more so than others leading to more movement on than part of the body which may give the patch a chance to fall...

I'm taking this for PLMS (periodic limb movement syndrom). Wow!! This is the only drug I have taken that has actually improved my quality of sleep. My husband noticed my mood improvement the first week. It could be better, but the improvement is worth the cost. Nothing else I have tried (and I have tried everything) has worked this well.

My only side effect which I am not certian is caused by the patch is extreme right leg pain especially at the hip, knee and ankle, along with swelling at these location. However the improvements out rank the side effect

I have been on the patch for two months for RLS and it is the best thing that has worked in twenty years. The doctors have tried everything.

Am trying this for RLS after finding Requip is not getting the job done...and maybe making my RLS worse. So far, this is just a 3 day trial period, but already I have basically eliminated my restless legs. Have not noticed any other side effects yet. I am very satisfied so far.

I am having trouble achieving orgasm during sex, and have never had this problem before, wondering if it is this med? Anyone else notice this.

husband developed a VERY BAD rash from the patch. Had to take him off the medicine and then we received notification that patch has beepulled off the market. What happens to the HUGE amount of money we paid as our co-pay for part D coverage for 90 patches?? We paid out of pocket $264.25 and Part D plan paid for us $429.75 and this put husband into the dough hole so that now we are into the part of paying 100% for medicines. We need assistance to return these patches we have and reimbursement so that on fixed income we have a little to use for more medicines which are very expensive and hard to pay for on very, very fixed income.Read More Read Less

Was using REQUIP prescribed for RLS. At first , it was the miracle drug! But the if you missed ONE dose Conditions grew WORSE! To the point of uncontroled body spasims. Legs, Arms, Torso, Was referred to a neuroligst. The previous doctor was treating the symptons. The neuroligst found the cause. LOW IRON He also said of REQUIP....It's POISON! NOw I am on these patches and something for sleep at night. In just 2 days I can feel a difference. They are weaning me from requip with the Neupro patches; and say it could take 6 months. Meanwhile, I am to take an iron pill daily. NEW DRUGS PEOPLE BEWARE Read More Read Less

I have acute restless leg syndrome. Since I have had Gastric Bypass most meds don"t disolve properly in my stomach. This patch has been wonderful. After a year of suffering I am now feeling normal.

Mobilty and stiffness is much better. Tremors are a little worse. I am having a lot of difficulty sleeping at night. Overall the treatment is better than adverse reactions.

Using the patch is great because it has eliminated having to take so many pills. The effectiveness of the patch appears to weaken at times. Sometimes I have to assist it during those times with additional meds. I am a regular exerciser and have found that sweat is definitely a problem. Need to design a more effective releasing substance and adhesive combo. Overall, I like it.

Just started so on lowest dose for RLS. Patch kept falling off. After about 12 hours on legs were restless again. But biggest problem was a reaction. I developed a bad case of hives. Not a good choice for me.

I found that being a hairy guy is the pits. I look like a crazy Quilt. The higer dosages put me to sleep a weird times. I was told to use a lower dosage . Works just fine. Fell better than I have in a long time. PS WE Must Have Stem cell Research, we need a cure not a patch. ivwasctold
