Someone recently mentioned that nicotin patches are being tested as an aid in slowing down Alzheimers disease. I am waiting approval of Rotigotine, the PD patch. It is supposed to be approved in early 2006. I am so hoping that it will be just what I need. Does anyone know anymore about when this will be availableI haven't been able to locate any information. Has anyone else heard anything about this??
