PRESCRIPTION DRUG
Ropinirole is indicated for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. Ropinirole is indicated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe primary Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Ropinirole tablets are contraindicated in patients known to have hypersensitivity/allergic reaction (including urticaria, angioedema, rash, pruritus) to ropinirole or to any of the excipients. Risk Summary There are no adequate data on the developmental risk associated with the use of ropinirole in pregnant women. In animal studies, ropinirole had adverse effects on development when administered to pregnant rats at doses similar to (neurobehavioral impairment) or greater than (teratogenicity and embryolethality at >36 times) the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) for Parkinson’s disease. Ropinirole doses associated with teratogenicity and embryolethality in pregnant rats were associated with maternal toxicity. In pregnant rabbits, ropinirole potentiated the teratogenic effects of L-dopa when these drugs were administered in combination [see
