    I was okay on Ropinirole for several years until 4mg and then augmentation. I now have a 4 week reset where I stop Ropinirole at 2mg and take 10mg Methadone (too small a dose to be addictive) to rest neurotransmitters. I then can go back on to 0.5mg Ropinirole and increase every few months until 2mg and then reset again. It has been a one year cycle for the last four years and I was the first in Australia to get the approval. Today there are a lot of people doing the same here. It has been a blessing.
