Dr. pappas...compared to 5 x 3 mg of requip & 6x 125 stalevo (carbidopa and levodopa and entacapone) will 8mg neupro & 6x 125 stalevo (carbidopa and levodopa and entacapone) be less likely to cause psycosis ?

Variable: Hello -- great question -- and you're basically asking about the difference between Neupro (rotigotine) ; requip. The data i've seen shows that Neupro (rotigotine) had a 7-14% incidence of hallucinations in clinical trials. This effect was dose-related, also. Requip had 5% incidence of hallucinations. Results may vary by individual too. I'll refer this question to some neurology colleagues for input also. Thanks.
