Reply To Questions About Neupro Availability In the U.S.
We have recieved several questions about Neupro and when it might be available again in the US. We’d like to share what we’ve found.
An internet search gave virtually no info on the future availability of this product again in the US. We did hear that the manufacturer had determined the cause of the cystallization and would recommend different storage conditions to prevent this. Short of that, a friend who also was finding great benefit from Neupro, said there is a recruiting clinical trial for it. You can find information about it at Clinical Trials. Perhaps they might know more and you might convince them to have mercy on you or your loved one who needs this medication to give it to you/them in the study. Let us know any feedback! Thanks.
P.S. Remember we are just patients with Parkinson’s seeking to help when we can by relaying information we find or hear that is most accurate. If you have a concern about anything on this blog, please contact us. We appreciate feedback and will gladly correct any erroneous material brought to our attention. Thanks!

UCB had a meeting in March with the FDA and are working hard to follow all guidelines in returning the patch to the USA, crossing our fingers early 2010.
UCB also has a new parkinson’s website if you like to visit.
