i am sure you can order 24 hr nico patches trough amazon or other websites.
if the 3,5 mg dose is not available,you simply cut a higher dose patch to obtain the desired dosage.
the patch seems better as it will deliver nicotine in your system for 24h continuously .

Villiers,
Thank you for this information. I am so naive about this; I thought ones still needed a prescription for the patch. I did receive a technical report of a former chemist who has PD and self treated with the gum and had good symptom control with just the gum. There is another study where people used the patch and the gum also with sustained beneficial effect of 2 years.
The gum here has an adjunct med that makes it 90% bioavailable to our system. I think I might try this once I clear it with my doctor.
Merci mille fois de nous avoir aidés.
