Ropinprime 1 Tablet 10 contains ropinirole (1 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Dopamine receptor stimulation: Ropinirole acts as a dopamine agonist, meaning it mimics the action of dopamine, an important brain chemical that helps control movement and coordination.

• D2/D3 receptor activation: It specifically targets dopamine D2 and D3 receptors in the brain, with a higher affinity for D3 receptors, helping to compensate for the dopamine deficiency seen in Parkinson's disease.

• Striatal pathway modulation: This medicine stimulates dopamine receptors in a brain region called the striatum, activating motor areas that regulate smooth and coordinated muscle activity.

• Dopaminergic pathway regulation: By directly stimulating dopamine receptors, ropinirole helps modulate the dopaminergic pathways involved in Restless Legs Syndrome, reducing uncomfortable sensations and movement urges.

• Store Ropinprime 1 Tablet 10 at room temperature below 30°C.

• Keep the bottle tightly closed to protect from light and moisture.

• Store in the original packaging until time of use.

• Keep out of reach and sight of children.

• Do not use this medicine after the expiry date printed on the package.

• Regular exercise: Gentle, regular physical activity like walking or swimming may help improve mobility and reduce stiffness in Parkinson's disease. Always start slowly and build up gradually.

• Consistent sleep schedule: Maintaining regular sleep hours can help reduce symptoms of Restless Legs Syndrome, as symptoms often worsen in the evening and at night.
