I've been on Requip XL 4mg Tablets for about six months now, and I've noticed some significant improvements in my Parkinson's symptoms. The once-daily dosing is convenient, but I've also experienced some side effects that I think are worth discussing. I've dealt with dizziness and excessive sweating, but nothing too severe. Has anyone else had similar experiences? Also, I'm wondering if anyone has tips for managing these side effects. I never knew that the effects could be this intense.

I'm new to this, so thanks for sharing your experience. I'm definitely going to talk to my doctor about these side effects.

Requip has been a game-changer for my movement issues, but I can’t believe how much I sweat now. It’s like living in a sauna.

I've been on Requip for a while, and I've had really good luck with it. No bad side effects for me. Kick ass!

It's crazy how different everyone's experience can be. I've heard of people having issues with hallucinations too. It’s like a freaking roller coaster.

I think it’s important to stay positive and remember that everyone’s experience is unique. Keep talking to your doctors. They are the experts.

I've had some trouble with sudden sleepiness. I saw what the drug info said about driving, so I stopped. Bummer

I had to switch because of the constipation and stomach issues. No fun at all.

My mom was on this and she hated the excessive sweating and dizziness. She was on it for a week before switching. We are going to try one of the other extended release dopamine drugs.
