Default Neupro Patch

I'm curious to know if any of you have had the Neupro Patch prescribed, and if so, would you be able to give me some feedback, i.e., as to how effective or not effective it has been for you. I realize that even if you have used this patch, it may be too soom to assess its efficacy since you've probably only been using it for a fairly short period of time due to its being a fairly new PD "med". I would also ask whether or not any of your neurologists have discussed this with you and what their views are on it. My pwp's neurologist is thinking seriously of prescribing the Neupro Patch for her, but wants to titrate her off her other "meds"(small dose Sinemet 25/100 t.i.d./comtan, 200 mg. w/each Sinemet/Cogentin)before starting with the patch. I'd appreciate any input that you may have about this.

Thank you...
Therese
