B12 and almost off Requip.
I am down to 0.125mg of
requip
. You can barely find the piece of the tablet it’s so small. The last two reductions were tough for the first 48 hours but I still am able to get 3-4 hours of sleep with kratom and gabapentin. Almost to the last step but nervous.

ChatGPT and Restless legs
Examples include pramipexole (Mirapex) and ropinirole (
Requip
). 2. Iron supplements: Iron deficiency can worsen restless leg syndrome symptoms, so iron supplements may be recommended. 3.

Stuck with requip feeling hopeless
I desperately want to stop the
requip
. My MD only wants to increase it but I don’t. I wondering if I could stop if I took 100mg of tramadol at night instead of 50 in morning and 50 at night? Maybe move the time of these meds back?

bad RLS, recent hip replacement
A year ago she was first prescribed pramipexole (0.25 and she takes 1.5 pills) and neurontin to take occasionally, and it first was working great, but in 6 months it got worse, she tried
Requip
, but it doesn't really help much.

Increase Neupro dosage or take Horizant or Requip?
Or should I consider moving entirely to
Requip
? My neurologist said
Requip
only lasts 4-5 hrs so I’d probably have to take another pill in the middle of the night, which seems like bad news for my sleep.

Meds and rls
Has anyone had hypersexuality with
requip
? My Dr seems to think
requip
didn't have the same side effects as mirapex.

Time for a sea change?
I think Prami and
Requip
should be banned and everyone switched over to Neupro until they can be comfortably withdrawn from even that.

Long term requip use side effects
Although I’m taking other medications including several changes in meds, it begins shortly after taking my dose of
requip
and may last all night and early mornings. I do not take any other meds within hours of taking
requip
.

An update
That did not work at the time and I ended up continuing the
Requip
. So here I am today about to try again. I keep looking at the latest research, hoping to find some glimmer of a cure etc. At least this forum is a place where I can share with fellow sufferers, and try different things.

My life with RLS, and the lengths I will go to for relief!
I went on
requip
. After trying gabapentin and who knows what else.
Requip
was a miracle! The side effects were awful diarrhea for 3 month . I fell asleep even in the middle of conversation, for about 2 years. I had to take it. The side effects were better than RLS! I took
requip
for 12 years.

The one Restless Limb that may have saved me years of trouble.
Back in the day when I was first starting medications to treat my RLS the doctor started with Mirapex and then
Requip
. At the the lowest dose of each there was quite a reaction. I can "firmly" say that I could not tolerate these medications because they caused painful priapism.

Alzheimer's and RLS
She was still taking up to 12 milligrams of
Requip
through out the da.y. alot. The early onset Alzheimer's really attacked her short turn memory pretty hard but long term was basically untouched. Then a miraculous thing happened over the next three weeks.

Ecopipam and Dr. Ondo.
We will be conducting a small, short study of ecopipam in RLS patients currently taking only dopamine agonists – pramipexole (Mirapex), ropinirole (
Requip
) or rotigotine (Neupro) – who initially had good benefit but now have augmentation. Other RLS drugs will not be allowed in the study.

Tramadol Prescription for Refractory RLS?
Tired
Requip
with no success. Tried Xyrem (made PLMs worse) and it terrified me. Neupro Patch (did not work). Each night is misery trying to fall asleep and stay asleep. Wake up multiple times and then want to binge eat any type of sugar I can get my hands on.

Trying another dopamine agonist (yeah, I know....🙁)
I was on
requip
and ambien for several years and augmented on the
requip
. Took me a year and a half to come off it-had terrible withdrawals. Took klonopin to help come off the last of it.

Restless Legs and Ropinerol
"If
requip
0.25mg at bedtime is not helping, each week you can go up by 0.25 mg until you reach 1mg at bedtime. If that's not helping, we can easily increase the dose. Most people need between 2 and 4 mg a day to achieve a good response."
