Brief summary

This is a two-period dose rising study of Ropinirole Immediate Release in adolescent patients with restless legs syndrome (RLS) in order to determine the starting dose for the ropinirole titration regimen for this age group. Patients will receive two single doses unless poor tolerability is observed following the first dose.
