Ropinirole is not available in Ecuador, I am told. Does anyone know of a medication for RLS that is available? I typed a long list of potential alternatives into the Pharmacy's website and nothing came up. I'm thinking there must be some expats in Ecuador with RLS who have figured it out. Thanks.
Ropinirole, RLS

It's unclear what website you were using, Ssocha.
You can take your English-language list to most pharmacies in Ecuadorian cities, and they can input individual meds' names into their computer and potentially assist you.

Another resource is the Restless Leg Syndrome Foundation.
They have resources, support and education for RLS persons, including Zoom meetings.
