Ropinirole sedation--does it go away with time?

Posted by psychobot5000 on August 31, 2006, at 23:44:32

Hi,
Recently started a trial of Ropinirole, for depression, and have moved quickly to dosing at .5mg, 2-3 times per day. The sedation and drowsiness are bad enough to keep me from functioning very well, though.
Anyone out there with experiences on Ropinirole, or another dopamine agonist? I was wondering, to what extent does this fade as one gets used to the medication? Or does it just get worse as one raises the dose? I imagine this med will be pretty effective, but I can't operate like this.
Any information is much appreciated.
