Does anyone else shout out in their sleep?
I am on Stalevo and
Requip
XL. On the other hand, it could be down to Parkinsons messing with my sleep pattern. It messes with almost everything else!!

not quite diagnosed?
I take neurontin and
requip
which do help with the pain. I have not wanted to get any more aggressive with my therapy until I have a for sure diagnosis. Anyways, trying to keep it short. Just looking for some confirmation or reassurance here.

Problems experienced while on Requip XL?
I tak 6mg of
Requip
daily and thought I did not have any problems with this. However, I am now wondering whether cramps, etc. in my lower legs, etc. can be attributed to
Requip
?

Do our bodies get used to our meds?
I was wondering if I am getting used to taking the same meds - Stalevo and
Requip
XL, as I have been taking these for about 3 years. It could be that these need increasing, or that my condition is progressing, although my physiotherapist said that I am stable at the moment.

'wearing off' and meds
I take Stalevo and
Requip
XL. I have been rereading answers to this question which was posed recently. My 'wearing off' takes a slightly different form. I find that for a period of days I get very little relief from my tablets.

Zelapar--is any one taking it? Comparison between Zelapar and Azilect?
WHen I was diagnosed with PD, the Neuro put me on a low dose of
Requip
and zelapar. I noticed a change right away- like I could move, had my balance back and an overall good feeling. Six months later, because I was going through a stressful time, He added a anti depressant.

The hidden shame of drug-affected behaviors resulting from Dopamine agonists.
Dopamine agonists such as
Requip
and Mirapex can cause Obsessive Compulsive and addictive like symptoms. Documented research has acknowledged the facts. The problem is the data is skewed simply because there are so many unreported cases.

I take 6mg of Requip XL daily
I take 6mg of
Requip
XL daily. I usually take mine in the morning but have noticed that other people take it at night. I don't recall being told when to take this, but that doesn't mean anything. I don't recall much of anything! Does anyone find it works better if taken at a certain time?

New to this website.
I currently take Stalevo 100 three times daily;
Requip
.5mg three times daily; and Azalect once daily. It took about five years to get the right dodges of medications that work for me. It gets changed from time to time, but right now I am stable on these meds.

I have noticed that a lot of y'all are on requip XL but at a low dosage. Is it because of the other meds you are taking that you
Requip
was the first meds (along with Zelapar) my neuro 's put me on. The highs and lows of the regular
requip
about did me in. So, I've been on the XL for a few years- still does a # on my stomach but it works most days.

When getting off Requip do any of you know what the side affects are?
My husband is only taking a 3mg dose at night for bedtime. We will eventually stop it all together if we can but he is having a very hard time. Please tell me your side affects when you got off it so we can know if what he is going through is normal.

stopping dopamine agonist to start taking sinamet, how long to give in between?
I have been taking Pramipexole for a week and a half, before that
Requip
xl, 6mg for a year. I have to completely stop taking Prami for a week before starting Sinamet. This is going to be hard as its technically going "cold turkey".
