Thank you for asking this. We are pondering this patch too, bought it, but haven't tried it. Tweaking current meds and didn't want any more havoc.

MY HUSBAND ( PARKINSON 13 YEARS) HAS JUST STARTED ON IT (ONE FULL MONTH) AND ALTHOUGH HE HAS NOT HAD ANY OF THE NEGATIVE SIDE EFFECTS I AM NOT "ABSOLUTELY" POSITIVE IT IS HELPING HIM. HIS MEMORY SEEMS TO BE BETTER (AT LEAST NOT WORSE) AND HIS DEPRESSION DAYS PRETTY MUCH GONE TOO (SINCE WE STARTED USING THE EXELON PATCH) SO WE WILL CONTINUE WITH THE EVERYDAY CHANGING AND THIS COMING MONTH AN ESCALATION OF THE DOSAGE, UNLESS SIDE EFFECTS KICK IN WITH THE HIGHER DOSAGE. IS IT MY IMAGINATION THIS PAST MONTH, THAT HE HAS IMPROVED--SINCE EACH PROBLEM WAS IN A BEGINNING STAGE--BUT VERY NOTICEABLE? HAVE ANY OF YOU HAVE TRIED IT AND HAD WHAT IS YOUR OPINION? HAS THE EXELON PATCH HELPED YOU ESCAPE OR AT LEAST SLOWED DOWN THE MEMORY PROBLEMS AND DEPRESSIONS?
