What is Ropinirole used for?

Ropinirole is a small molecule being studied for Parkinson Disease, Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), and Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Primary. It is developed by GSK plc and is in clinical development for these neurological conditions.

What does Ropinirole target?

Ropinirole is a small molecule developed for neurological conditions. Its specific molecular target is not disclosed in the available information, so its mechanism of action is not detailed here.

Who makes Ropinirole?

Ropinirole is developed by GSK plc, a pharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker GSK. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug for various neurological indications.

What phase is Ropinirole in?

Ropinirole is in Phase 3 clinical development. It has completed trials in Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3, but it remains investigational and is not yet approved for any use.

What clinical trials is Ropinirole in?

Ropinirole has completed three clinical trials. NCT00363857 tested it for Restless Legs Syndrome in Phase 3, NCT00256893 tested it for Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Primary in Phase 2, and NCT00460148 studied its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion in Parkinson Disease patients.

Is Ropinirole the same as Requip?

Ropinirole is also known by the brand name Requip. This alternative name is used in clinical and commercial contexts, and patients or healthcare providers may refer to the drug by either name.
