Yes, Apomorphine has been available here in the UK for several years now, I know two fellow sufferers of PD who used it. In both cases it did work well, and almost instantly, but, and it's a big but, both of these people experienced extreme end of dose side effects in the form of severe dyskenesia, uncontrollable writhing and twisting of limbs .
