I am new to this post. I have been taking 1.5 MGs at night of roponirole for over a year. I am trying to wean myself off of it, and have reduced my dosage to 1 MG for the past three weeks. I have noticed that I can only sleep about four hours. I tried taking Phenitropic when I would wake up, but discontinued because it made me so groggy in the morning. I am now trying melatonin, but haven’t had much luck. Does anyone know how much melatonin I can take? Any other ideas?
Thank you
I dont think that melatonin is a good solution.I m not sure but i think that melatonin makes rls get worse.
I read that Melatonin can make RLS worse too. I was prescribed it by a UK Sleep 'specialist' (private, phone consultation ) who I didn't rate and seemed very dismissive and ignorant so I looked up all he'd prescribed before I took it or not and found that info about Melatonin. I didn't take anything he suggested. he said he was a RLS specialist but clearly wasn't - another blind and expensive alley!
It does...
