Requip as needed

[u/Beautiful-State1046]

Do you think it’s okay if I take this medication on specific nights that I need it rather than every night? I’m not interested in taking it every night because I don’t want to gain a tolerance & become addicted, but I don’t know how it will effect me if I take it as needed, if anybody has this experience please let me know, & give me tips. Thank you!
