Ropinirole Muscle Weakness

Updated

I'm having serious pain, was getting much stronger through physical therapy, began ropinirole and began to have severe pain, and wonder if ropinirole might have caused muscle weakness

Hello, Steve! How are you?

Yes, it can cause those types of symptoms as side effects in some people that take it. You may want to discuss going off of it for awhile, to see if things improve, if so, then you'll have your answer.

Are there any other questions or concerns?

something always seems to keep me from making an adjustment. I cut back to one a day from three, always one hour before bedtime.
after two or three days of one, I had an attack of Restless leg, after taking three, it was still out of control and I tried 10-20 minutes on a Tens unit and that seems to have helped, or the ropinrole finally kicked in, or both.
So many different things, neck pain, low back pain so bad I could hardly walk,
it's better now, but significantly worse, weaker than a couple of weeks earlier when I was getting so much stronger.
