Off of Requip

Posted by Bonanza on October 7, 2004, at 19:30:12

I desperately want off of Requip (taken for RLS and PLMS). I slowly got off Mirapex (caused augmentation and rebound) while starting this, but after 8 days of this, it's clear that it's making my symptoms worse. I keep reading that you need to reduce slowly over a week, but I've only taken in 8 days. Is that a short enough time that I can stop immediately? All help is appreciated!!!

i would certainly think so-- unless you've been on some kind of massively huge dose or something.
