Yes. C/L has a half-life of about 90 minutes, whereas ropinirole has a half-life of about 6 hours.

Rytary is made up from different preparations of C/L: an immediate release bead and two extended. release types of beads. The idea being that their effects should combine to give a long lasting plateau. However, if something goes wrong and one of the beads is not absorbed properly there is no easy fix.
