Good to see Ropinirole experiences being shared. I have been taking it for 2 years and have been on 20mg per day for over a year. I find that I must take my tabs (5mg each)with food, or suffer very bad nausea. However if I escape the nausea the main side effect is drowsiness. I vary the time of day that I take the tabs to avoid being drowsy at key times (1-2 hours later)eg. important meetings or driving longer journeys. I usually take half my daily dose in one go before going to sleep at night - this uneven pattern does not seem to reduce their effectivenes as far as I can tell. I have not experienced sudden sleep attacks but the gradual sleepiness is very hard to shake off. I'm keen to hear how others cope with these effects. Regards
