2.1 General Dosing Recommendations • Ropinirole extended-release tablets are taken once daily, with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. • Tablets must be swallowed whole and must not be chewed, crushed, or divided. • If a significant interruption in therapy with ropinirole extended-release tablets has occurred, retitration of therapy may be warranted. 2.2 Dosing for Parkinson’s DiseaseThe starting dose is 2 mg taken once daily for 1 to 2 weeks, followed by increases of 2 mg/day at one week or longer intervals as appropriate, based on therapeutic response and tolerability. The maximum recommended dose of ropinirole extended-release tablets is 24 mg/day.
In clinical trials, dosage was initiated at 2 mg/day and gradually titrated based on individual patient therapeutic response and tolerability. Doses greater than 24 mg/day have not been studied in clinical trials. Patients should be assessed for therapeutic response and tolerability at a minimal interval of one week or longer after each dose increment. Monitor patients during dose titration because too rapid a rate of titration may lead to dose selection that may not provide additional benefit, but that may increase the risk of adverse reactions [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. Due to the flexible dosing design used in clinical trials, specific dose-response information could not be determined.
Ropinirole extended-release tablets should be discontinued gradually over a 7-day period.
Renal ImpairmentNo dose adjustment is necessary in patients with moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance of 30 to 50 mL/min). The recommended initial dose of ropinirole extended-release tablets for patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis is 2 mg once daily. Further dose escalations should be based on tolerability and need for efficacy. The recommended maximum total daily dose is 18 mg/day in patients receiving regular dialysis. Supplemental doses after dialysis are not required. The use of ropinirole extended-release tablets in patients with severe renal impairment without regular dialysis has not been studied.
2.3 Switching from Immediate-release Ropinirole Tablets to Ropinirole Extended-release TabletsPatients may be switched directly from immediate-release ropinirole to ropinirole extended-release tablets. The initial dose of ropinirole extended-release tablets should most closely match the total daily dose of the immediate-release formulation of ropinirole, as shown in Table 1.

Following conversion to ropinirole extended-release tablets, the dose may be adjusted depending on therapeutic response and tolerability [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].
2.4 Effect of Gastrointestinal Transit Time on Medication ReleaseRopinirole extended-release tablets are designed to release medication over a 24-hour period. If rapid gastrointestinal transit occurs, there may be risk of incomplete release of medication and medication residue being passed in the stool.
