Sleepless nights

[Tilly56]

Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with restless leg syndrome

[ABDESSLAM1]

My Dr prescribed Ropinirole HCL 0.25 mg . I put it on the shelf for NOW .

Trying to understand the side effect and the benefit.

Hi Tilly,

I use Alprazolam (aka Xanax). If i am not able to sleep because of RLS I take one 0.25 mg pill.

It works, so far. It happens once or twice a week.

Increased Requip from 2mg once a day (before lunch) to 2x 2mg (2 mg before lunch and 2mg before dinner) and no more rls

Magnesium supplement helps my hubby.

Helps me too!

Where do you buy it, brand name, mg, and dose? Thank you

My MDS said when I get RLS in the evening it is part of an off period and added additional 50mg of Sinemet. It took care of it. Hope that helps

I take B vits for nerve related issues, especially B12, as well as magnesium.

Neupro patch works better for my husband than the ropinerole due to its side effects. Also a weighted blanket on the legs and compression socks.
