More on Rotigotine

One of the drugs in development, a DA delivered via a patch, has succesfully completed their second Phase III study - should be applying for Phase IV by the end of the year. For those who need drugs, this is thought to be an answer to augmentation due to the consistent delivery. It will still be a few more years before it's available. But, even those who stopped DAs for other reasons, but still need drugs may find this works.

Great news!.... I think. I am going to try this when it comes out but am worried that folks like you and I are going to have more of the same problems with this class of meds. Are you going to give a whirl, Ann?

Not sure. . .after three miserable failures, I'm not sure I have it in me to do it. We'll see, as I've got years to go before it will be available. How about you?
