Requip, Sinemet, swollen ankles and more...anyone else have similar problems?
As things were clearly progressing I was then prescribed 8mg
Requip
Modutab ( controlled release)for two and half years before it was increased to 10 mg when symptoms became less well controlled.

Medication - 'Requip'
Has anyone with PSP tried this medication or something similar? Medication and its side effects has always been a concern of mine and it is 'yet' another medication that had been suggested to my husband to try.

Has anyone managed to lose weight by joining a Slimming club?
I am on Stalevo,
Requip
and Sinemet CR at night. I have recently developed sciatica. I need to lose weight. I have always been slim, now I am not. I am seriously considering joining Slimming World and was wondering if anyone has managed to lose any weight this way, or would I just be wasting money?

Experiences with Requip
I use
Requip
with, what I consider, excellent results for RLS. I have PD also also and
Requip
seems to allay some of PD's discomfort. I also have serious neuropathy and I can't tell which symptoms are caused by which disease.

Alcohol craving o.O
The
requip
is the newest addition to my cocktail of daily meds, so all i can assume is that it is this medication.. Does anyone else have uncontrollable, intense cravings ? How do you manage to subdue or ignore them ? Tina x

first time, long time - mind if i just vent a little bit?
When I was first diagnosed with rls, the first med i was given was
requip
... which i wasn't able to take because it made me vomit. After that, the doctor gave me tramadol and it was like a miracle.

Does anyone have hallucinations from their PD meds.
I take
requip
2/3 x, sinemet 4 x, amantadine 3 x, and 2 clonazepan at bedtime. Most of my hallucinations are of people that have passed. It kind of scares me from time to time. It doesn't happen all the time maybe once or twice a week.

Mucuna pruriens caused unpleasant side effects
So after weighing my options I am going to go back on my
requip
and maybe azilect at a reduced dose.....and stop taking the MP. I wish I could have stopped all my Parkinson's meds and substituted MP......but it hasn't worked out for me.

Finally been started on Requip. Is there anything I should be wary of ?
Hi guys / gals I finally got the
requip
off my gp ( only took a whole month from my neuro prescribing it o.O ) Are there any side affects which o should be weary of ? I know it mentions quite a few, but how common are they really ? I am very worried about daytime sleep attacks ?

It pays to price check prescription costs!! This website is a wonderful help!!
The last time our insurance changed and we suddenly had to start paying full price, out of pocket for prescriptions, the medicine that Chris takes for Parkinson's (
Requip
) would have cost us over $200 a month if we would have stayed with CVS.

Over the last few months I have eliminated 1mg azilect and 8mg requip.
I continue to take sinemet (100/25) 3x a day plus 3/8 teaspoon mucuna pruriens 3x and 2
requip
at night for my restless leg. I am doing well except for a slight occasional tremor, more so when I am stimulated.
