Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Requip 1mg Tablet is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Take Requip 1mg Tablet with food to help reduce nausea. For Parkinson’s disease, take each dose at the times advised by your doctor throughout the day; for restless legs syndrome, take your dose 1-3 hours before you go to bed. Swallow the tablet whole with water.

Dosage

For Parkinson’s disease, Requip 1mg Tablet is usually started at a low dose taken several times a day and increased gradually according to your doctor’s individualised titration schedule. For restless legs syndrome, it is generally taken as a single dose 1-3 hours before bedtime, starting low and adjusted as needed. Your doctor will confirm the schedule that applies to your condition.
