I take Ropinirole 2mg 2 hours before going to bed that is it. But when I want to take a nap after lunch my legs goes crazy. When I take Ropinirole it makes me sleepy; that is why I take it only at night. I'm afraid if I take it in the afternoon, it will make me sleepy. What should I do ( I guess no naps hahahaa). Thanks.

Unfortunately, I have the same problem. Occasionally, if I'm lucky, I can fall asleep before the restless legs kicks in too badly. Normally, I just find that I have to give up the thought of a nice afternoon nap!
