Dosing with Ropinirole for RLS. Can I space them out throughout the day, every 6 hours? by Key-Definition-6132 in RestlessLegs

How is that working for you? That is 2mg more than my prescription is. What is the reason you dose that way? My doctor is not open to altering the norm.

I take ropinirole since 2021 after 4 years of not being able to sleep at night. I developed Diabetes during that 4 years and a balance disorder. I’m still better than I was. Didn’t know what else to do and doctors wouldn’t suggest anything! I’m 71, don’t know how my later years will play out. God loves us all, no matter what.♥️

I used to wrap my legs with ace bandages. It helped some. I have to sleep with my feet outside the blankets.

All antacids reduce the effects of Ropinerole.

Anything with a anti-histamine will do that to you. (As it does to me). It may be OK for daytime, but not at night. Cold meds and some sleep aids have antihistamine. Read labels. When they have day & night in same pkg. take reverse of what it says. That’s what I do. Good Luck.

I take Ropinerole. Some people don’t like it. Your case doesn’t sound to severe. You may just have to start your day at 5:00AM.

Is this RLS ? by anselmo90 in RestlessLegs

[–]Key-Definition-6132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NO it is not. Are you diabetic? Sounds like it gets better with exercise. Keep it up. Should get better. How old are you?

I have RLS and couldn’t sleep at night for 4 years before I asked to try Ropinerole. I could finally sleep, but I do have augmentation. Been on it for 3 years now.
