I was put on Requip about 14 mos. ago. I started with 1 mg. at night. When I began to get the squirmies earlier in the afternoon, the new neuro told me to take .5 mg in the morning and 1 mg at night.
My body seems to have acclimated, though, because I get the squirmies by about 6 pm. The problem with taking the Requip earlier in the evening is that I'm asleep within about an hour afterward.
Try it...anything's better than that horrible jumpy feeling
