6 Ropinirole Side Effects That You Must Be Aware Of

Publicado 2022-02-24
I cover ropinirole (Requip) side effects in this video.

Ropinirole is a prescription medication used to treat Parkinson's Disease and Restless Leg Syndrome. I first cover HOW ropinirole works in your body which will help you understand how/why these particular side effects occur.

Towards the end of the video I cover one of the more problematic and worrisome side effects. If you or a loved one are taking - or thinking of taking - ropinirole be sure to watch that.

    I've tried this off-label for anhedonic depression and it worked (including anxiolytic effects) but it gave me too much drowsiness along with orthostatic hypotension even in a low dose (0.25mg) but it worked faster than pramipexole (i.e. 3 days for a good response vs 7 days for pramipexole). (Ropinirole was originally developed as an antihypertensive drug according to an abstract on PubMed) I've read that ropinirole also targets the sigma-1 receptor, unlike pramipexole and some newer treatments that target this receptor result in a more rapid response to depression. I have found pramipexole to be much more tolerable and I have no more depression or panic attacks. I do get sleep attacks if I'm sitting - so I don't drive - but it's worth it because I otherwise have excellent quality of life.

    I am suffering from neuropathy in my legs from lymphedema of my legs.The pain was so bad I couldn't stand it and of course I couldn't sleep. I am not used to taking a lot of medication however I'm a chronic back pain with awful thoracic and lumbar pain so I do take zanaflex for awful muscle. I eat very very low carbohydrates and higher protein and fat which seems to help with the inflammation. I have only been taking this drug for 3 days and the pain in my legs have stopped. I am only taking 1mg.. it just concerns me and I wanted to know how long I can take this medication and if I stop will horrible pain in my legs come back. I really don't want to take this medication however I had to do something because the pain was unbearable and it kept me from sleeping and I didn't know what else to do. Please help me if you can and thank you.

    I feel like I've been poisoned by taking this
  • I am now taking 2 x 2mg daily and my RLS and PLMD are getting really bad. Even with sleeping tablets only manage 4 hours…some nights no sleep at all. Feel I am going mad and constantly crying. My doctor is Spanish and really doesn’t understand the syndrome
