I tried Neupro which is a transdermal patch. It does have some side effects like headaches, dizziness, and some nausea, symptoms that became milder after 1-2 weeks. It’s a rather expensive drug, even with insurance, but I’ve slept all night long more nights than not for the first time in 10 years. I was only getting 1 - 2 hours of sleep per night. Again, everyone is different, but it’s worth a try. I was at the point where I would do anything to get some sleep. I wasn’t able to drive since I would drop to sleep involuntarily, and I was unable to stay the night away from home at all Since I would need to walk almost all night long, and sometimes I even would run through the house, as crazy as it sounds, to try to get rid of the symptoms since they intensified through the night
