Ropark 2 Tablet is taken orally.

Ropark 2 Tablet contains ropinirole (2 mg). Its activity in the body can be explained as follows:

• Dopamine Agonist: Ropinirole works by mimicking the action of dopamine, a chemical messenger in the brain. This is particularly useful in conditions like Parkinson's disease, where there's a deficiency of dopamine in the brain.

• Modulates Sensorimotor Circuitry: In the case of restless legs syndrome, while the exact mechanism is unclear, it's thought that ropinirole's dopaminergic activity helps modulate abnormal sensorimotor circuitry. This helps control the urge to move the legs and improves sleep quality.
