Parkinson’s disease and Restless Legs Syndrome don’t follow convenient schedules. Tremors interrupt tasks at unpredictable moments. Stiffness makes simple movements painful. Restlessness destroys sleep quality night after night. Your neurologist prescribes rotigotine patches because they deliver consistent medication levels throughout the day. Then you learn the monthly cost approaches what many people pay for car payments.
If cost is making treatment difficult, The Rx Advocates can help. We specialize in connecting patients with Patient Assistance Programs that offer substantial, long-term savings.
What is the Neupro Patient Assistance Program?
Pharmaceutical companies sponsor programs for patients managing Parkinson’s disease or RLS who face financial barriers. The program ensures qualifying individuals maintain consistent access to rotigotine transdermal patches.
You provide your neurologist’s prescription and household income documentation. Our team coordinates with your doctor’s office, compiles materials, submits your application, and monitors progress until approval. Once enrolled, your medication ships on schedule.
We work with over 100 U.S.-based pharmaceutical companies, helping facilitate access to more than 800 FDA-approved medications. Parkinson’s patients typically require multiple medications. We handle all applications simultaneously.
How to Qualify
Patient assistance programs evaluate eligibility based on financial need and medical necessity:
- Annual household income below $40,000 for individuals, $60,000 for couples, or $100,000 for larger families
- Limited or no insurance coverage for medications
- Valid prescription from licensed healthcare provider
However, it’s important to note that even if you meet these guidelines, approval isn’t guaranteed. Contact us so our team can assess your circumstances and determine if you qualify.

About Neupro
Neupro (rotigotine) is prescription medication in the form of transdermal patch used to treat Parkinson’s disease and moderate-to-severe Restless Legs Syndrome.
How it works: Parkinson’s disease develops when brain cells producing dopamine die or become impaired. Without adequate dopamine, patients experience tremors, stiffness, and difficulty initiating movement. RLS involves an overwhelming urge to move legs. Neupro belongs to dopamine agonists, which mimic dopamine’s effects in the brain, helping restore balance and alleviating symptoms.
Administration: Patches are worn once daily, providing continuous release over 24 hours. Patients apply patches to clean, dry skin on abdomen, thigh, hip, shoulder, or upper arm, rotating application sites daily. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions carefully.
Side effects:
- Common: Application site reactions, nausea, drowsiness, dizziness, headache
- Serious: Sudden sleep episodes, impulse control disorders, hallucinations, low blood pressure
Important warnings: Can cause sudden sleep episodes without warning, making driving dangerous. Some patients develop impulse control disorders including compulsive gambling or shopping. Never stop using patches suddenly without consulting a healthcare provider as withdrawal symptoms can occur.
