I have been using the Neupro patch since July and have not noticed any difference in effectiveness as to the location of the patch. I like the thigh best. The shoulder did not work in the summer when I wanted to swim because my swim suit does not cover my shoulders. They say to rotate the position so you only use each spot once every 2 weeks.

The patch worked extremely well for me for 2 months. My Stalevo had been wearing off and with the patch it did not wear off at all during the day. However, now it is wearing off again. I don't know if I need the larger patch now. I go back to my neuro in 2 weeks.
