The answer is yeas this foes cause cramps and very painful too. I am taking liquid morphine 10mg/5ml 7.5 ml at 8.30 pm and seems to be of little help.

Most of the time I take Tramadol and Ropinirole;en0.50mg twice with tea and dinner it would seem to help.

Now I get RLS symptom ie pain and cramps 4 in the morning screaming with apn. Any help or advice please. Thanks

Ropinirole caused terrible cramps for me when I was on it.

Since getting off Ropinirole, I haven't had any leg or foot cramps.

My suggestion would be to slowly reduce the ropinirole.

The liquid morphine & tramadol should help with the withdrawal

On checking up the pharmaceutical particulars of liquid morphine I find that the largest proportion of the medication is sucrose (a refined sugar). If your rls is caused by inflammation of the nerves. the sugar could be responsible for making the cramps and rls worse. Try cutting out sugar and sweetened foods from your diet. You may need to follow a diabetic diet.
