Arms Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: Group 1
Give QD dose first then BID dosing
Drug: Requip PD
Change Requip or Mirapex to Requip PD
Other Name: Requip PD
Active Comparator: Group 2
Give BID dosing and then QD dosing
Drug: Requip PD
Change Requip or Mirapex to Requip PD
Other Name: Requip PD

Detailed Description:
  1. Study subjects : Parkinson disease who are on Requip or Mirapex and are considering to change into Requip PD
  2. Cross over study design:

    • Group 1: once daily dose for 2 month then into BID in divided dose for 2 months
    • Group 2: BID in divided dose for 2 months then into QD dose for 2 months
  3. Dose adjustment may be done in the first 4 weeks.
  4. Compare the benefit,side effects, and patient preference between the QD vs BID dosing.
