Brief Summary: Ropinirole has shown to improve mood in depressed patients as well as to improve the symptoms of Restless Legs Syndrome. Up to 40% of RLS patients suffer from mild depression, therefore it would be important for decisions no therapy to know whether a drug could improve both depressive and RLS symptoms.

Primary Outcomes:
  • to compare efficacy of ropinirole and placebo on improving mood in patients with moderate to severe idiopathic RLS and some depressive symptoms, change on a depression rating scale after 12 weeks treatment with ropinirole versus placebo is measured.
Secondary Outcomes:
  • ·Change form baseline at week 12 in somnolence, as measured by the MOS sleep scale.
  • Changes from baseline in visual analogue scale score (patients own assessment of their overall health) to day 8, weeks 4, 8 and 12
  • ·Changes from baseline at week 12 in number of awakenings per night due to RLS symptoms.
  • ·Change from baseline at week 12 in all domains of the SF-36.
  • ·Changes from baseline at week 12 in number of days with RLS symptoms.
  • ·CGI improvement and severity at day 8, weeks 4, 8 and 12.
  • ·Change from baseline at week 12 in the overall life impact score on the RLS QOL Questionnaire.
  • ·Change from baseline at week 12 in Sleep II Index, as measured by MOS sleep scale.
  • ·Proportion of patients with a score of much-improved (2) or very much-improved (1) on the CGI (Global Improvement) scale at day 8, weeks 4, 8 and 12 LOCF (last observation carried forward).
  • ·Change from baseline at week 12 in sleep quantity, as measured by the MOS sleep scale.
  • The efficacy of ropinirole in improving mood in patient with different severities of depression will be measured. Also the efficacy of ropinirole in improving the symptoms of RLS and sleep will be assessed. Some endpoints will include safety measures.
  • ·Time to response on the Clinical Global Impression (Global Improvement) (CGI) scale.
