I currently use Ropinirole (1.5 mg daily) to alleviate RLS, but now live in a country where it is not available. Pramipexole is available here. What is the best process for switching use? Do I need to taper off Ropinirole while gradually increasing use of Pramipexole? Over what period of time?
How do I switch from Ropinirole to Pramipexole?
