sounds familiar
Ann - I take Requip (generic) for RLS. I took Mirapex years ago - first PD drug prescribed to me; after 6 years, switched to Requip because Mirapex made me sleepy.
That was five years ago. I decided to go off the Requip as well, because I don't like the way agonists make me think and feel, but, because of the RLS, I started up again with Requip about 3 years ago. I am taking the generic now; very low dose - 1 mg/ 3 times a day. Works well for my RLS - I also am taking Sinemet (generic) 3/day and Amantadine 3/day. That, plus an antidepressant, is my total med regimen.
