of\u00a0Parkinson&#8217;s disease.\u00a0It can also be given with another medicine called\u00a0L-dopa\u00a0(also called\u00a0levodopa\u00a0).\u00a0If you take\u00a0L-dopa, you may experience involuntary jerky movements when you start taking Ropinirole Sandoz.\u00a0Tell your doctor if this happens as your doctor may need to adjust the\u00a0doses\u00a0of the medicine you are taking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ropinirole Sandoz is designed to release drugs over 24 hours.\u00a0If you have a condition where your medicine passes through the body too quickly, e.g.\u00a0diarrhea, the

day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you experience&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;at the beginning of your treatment that you can not accept, talk to your doctor.&nbsp;Your doctor may advise you to switch to a lower&nbsp;dose&nbsp;of ropinirole film-coated tablets (tablets with faster&nbsp;release&nbsp;) that you should take three times a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do not take more Ropinirole, Sandoz, than
