The objective of this study is to evaluate the adhesion of the test product when compared to the reference product following a single transdermal application.
The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the adhesion of the test product when compared to the reference product following a single transdermal application. The following evaluations will be assessed as "yes" or "no": * Cold flow (dark ring formed around the patch) * Patch movement/displacement * Patch wrinkling * Residue formation (at patch application on the release liner and at patch removal on the skin) Safety and tolerability of a single dose application of a patch containing 18 mg rotigotine (Test) against a patch containing 18 mg rotigotine (Reference) will be evaluated in terms of vital signs and AEs. AEs and clinical tolerability will be monitored at all clinical trial visits. The safety evaluation will be based upon the review of the individual values (potentially clinically important abnormalities) and descriptive statistics (summary tables, graphics). As additional safety parameters for the clinical trial physical examination findings, clinical laboratory parameters, and 12-lead ECGs will be assessed at the screening and follow-up.

Patch Adhesion
Patch Adhesion will be measured as the percentage of area that remained adhered after 24 hours of patch application.
Time frame: 24 hours in each Treatment Period
Number of patients with cold flow
Cold flow is defined as dark ring formed around the patch
Time frame: 24 hours in each Treatment Period
Number of patients with patch movement/displacement
Time frame: 24 hours in each Treatment Period
Number of patients with patch wrinkling
Time frame: 24 hours in each Treatment Period
Number of patients with patch residue formation
Patch residue formation is assessed at patch application on the release liner and at patch removal on the skin.
Time frame: 24 hours in each Treatment Period
