Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any new or worsening symptoms, especially involuntary movements (tardive dyskinesia), hallucinations, or compulsive behaviors like gambling or excessive shopping. These can be serious side effects.
Schedule a follow-up appointment if your Parkinson’s symptoms aren’t adequately controlled despite taking Requip, or if your medication’s effectiveness seems to be diminishing. Your doctor might adjust your dosage or explore other treatment options.
Report any significant changes in your health, such as new medical conditions or the start of other medications. Interactions can affect Requip’s efficacy and safety. Always inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you’re taking.
Discuss potential side effects with your doctor. While some are common, others may require attention. Don’t hesitate to ask questions and share your concerns.
