Neupro should not be used if: the patient is allergic to rotigotine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in Description); the patient needs to have a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan; the patient needs cardioversion.
Neupro patch must be taken off just before undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or cardioversion to avoid skin burns because the patch contains aluminium. A new patch can be put on afterwards.
