Just started taking Requip. Feel nauseous and stomach hurts. Anyone experience this with Requip?

I take requip and don't have nausea but was warned that it could so my PNS suggested domperidone.

Requip was very hard for me to tolerate also. Hang in there, it really was a blessing for me after I got used to it. Try drinking peppermint tea to settle your stomach.

I take generic for requip. It has caused very bad dry mouth with sores in my mouth.

I'm on ropinirole I expected to feel bad on it as I had a severe reaction to bromocryptine , which is the same family of drugs, that used to be used to treat PD (I was given it to stop me lactating when my baby was six months old) anyway I tolerate ropinirole gastricly but I have a lot of swelling in legs and ankles and a lot of burning pain. I haven't felt a lot of benefit at 18mg per day perhaps I expect too much, but I can hardly walk and my balance is really bad.
