As many of you heard - my Dad's neuro plans to switch him to Requip (he's currently on Mirapex - but higher doses make him dizzy). I've noticed many of you on ReQuip seem to be on Sinemet as well. Anyone out there on ReQuip alone ? Also any guidelines for switching from Mirapex to ReQuip ? We're hoping he doesn't have to go off M completely for any length of time - since thats all he's taking. (except A/D Serzone ) Also Mirapex - seems to have some anti-depressant qualities to it - does Requip possess this as well - or are we back to trouble with drepression ? thanks donna (daughter of PD dad 74/1 1/5mg Mirapex) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Donna Bassolino-Klimas, Ph.D. Bristol Myers Squibb Pharma.
