Mom has been on exelon patch for 19 days had to take her off as of yesterday. She developed red marks where everyone of them were placed. Didn't start right away but are there now. I'm so over doctors and their guinea pig games.

I have no experience with Exelon, but it has been widely used within my support group. For some people it was a wonderful improvement. For others there were unacceptable side effects. For a small group it didn't seem to do anything. With many of the drugs used for dementia, you pretty well have to try it to see how it works for you.

It looks like your question is incomplete. What did you specifically want to ask?

The most common side effects of EXELON PATCH include depression, headache, anxiety, dizziness, stomach pain, urinary tract infections, muscle weakness, tiredness, and trouble sleeping. Call the MD if you have this.
