Ropinerole (Requip) advice please?
Hi all. I just started on Ropinerole which has been added to my Azilect. I took 2 mg (extended release) for 2 weeks and 2 days ago titrated up to 4mg. Can't say I've noticed much therapeutic difference yet but two things I definitely have noticed are 1) Headaches and 2) Constipation. These are a surprise

Have You Tried a Dopamine Agonist?
I have been on
Requip
(ropinirole) for 20 years and it has been a God-send for me. Mirapex (pramipexole) is another good one!

What should I do
augmentation to the pong of rls all day everywhere in my body I was suggested to change to
requip
. Will start lie dose of
requip
and cross my fingers that it works and I can get rid of day time rls. The sleep clinic doctor said I should take a .5 clonazepam at bedtime.

Disappointing visit to new GP
My wife is up in bed at the moment after a terrible night with legs and arms, she had taken amitriptyline 75mg and dyhydrocodene in the night, finally in the night, she took half a
Requip
. She had gone to the GP on Wed to ask for help coming off the
Requip
as she has augmentation.

He takes trazadone, lyrica,
requip
, baclofen, and melatonin to help and still his best nights, which are rare, he is only sleeping 4 hours straight. More often he sleeps maybe an hour.

MEDICATION NOT WORKING EFFICIENTLY
I take Stalevo,
Requip
and half Sinemet for Parkinsons and other meds for different problems. I am beginning to wonder if these meds are working against each other. Is this possible? Last weekend I had a series of steroid injections for facet joint pain and my meds are all over the place.

Take nothing for granted. Try anything that that will not harm you and keep a diary.
At that time i was taking carbidopa levodopa, azilect and
Requip
. To my surprise all the night time problems went away. I handle stress as good as i ever did and I am like i was 10 years ago.

Better than foot wraps? I think so... :)
Btw, I'm still on Ropinerol which I've been taking since
Requip
first went generic , but I am cutting down because I may have reached the augmentation point - not sure because withdrawal sure does cause augmentation!
