Depends on who you ask, unfortunately. Lee, Buchfuhrer, and Allen, all seem to agree that .25 max dose for pramipexole and, I think, 1 mg for ropinerole.

There was a time when it was considered ok to go up to 4mg daily on Ropinerole but this was then reconsidered.
Unfortunately I am on the 4mg dosage.
