Could someone please provide me with a link for the Mayo Clinic for up to date information on RLS. I have found one Mayo Clinic document that uses Pramipexole and Ropinirole as treatment for RLS. I thought these meds were not used anymore? Thank you.

Wouldn't be great if they weren't used anymore and wouldn't be great if the Mayo Clinic read or were aware of their own Updated Algorithm for RLS. Ridiculous isn't it?

Can you give me the link to the document and where you found it. I may write to them.

I heard/read somewhere that ropinirole is to be (has been?) discontinued for use with Parkinsons disease not for RLS. Sorry. but I cannot remember/find the source for this. Search "Parkinsons ropinirole" for some more stuff.

Not what you're looking for?
