Please tell me why Ropinerole is so bad. I have suffered Rls for years and Ropinerole helps enormously. However their effect is diminishing, hence trying to find the reason.

Depends how long you've been taking it and how often you've been increasing the dose. Nothing wrong with Ropinoral , except it gets abused.

Check out " augmentation" if your answer to the first 2 questions is -' a long time ', and' yes'.
