I'm having serious pain, was getting much stronger through physical therapy, began ropinirole and began to have severe pain, and wonder if ropinirole might have caused muscle weakness ## Hello, Steve!

will this show up in a drug test ## I don't believe a drug testing facility would test for a medication used for treating the symptoms of Parkinson's disease or Restless legs syndrome. Ropinirole is in a class of medications called dopamine agonists. It works by acting in place of dopamine, a natural substance in the brain that is needed to control movement. They also can't test for something and hold it against you if it's already naturally occurring in the body. That just wouldn't make sense to me if they did. In either case, if this is your prescription of Ropinirole, you can simply present the lab or employer with a copy of your script prior to the test, that way if something did show up, at least you wouldn't be held accountable for it. I hope this advice he...

Why would this medicine help RLS and insomnia? I have been taking the max allowed of ropinirole for RLS, but RLS is getting worse. When I am walking the floors, in pain and can't be still, I would try anything. I remembered this medicine I had from Breast Cancer Surgery; I took one. I went to sleep almost immediately. The second night, the same thing. The ropinirole is not working. I took another one. I went to sleep. Slept all night, woke up felt great. What is going on? Tonight instead of starting the ropinirole, I decided to try one of these Oxycod/apap pills 5 to 325 mg. (?) . Anyway, I feel fine. I have not had any restlessness. i am able to sit still and watch TV. This can't continue, as no doctor is going to prescribe oxycod/apap. Why is the roprinirole not working. I cou...
