Hi,
Yes, it exactly the same drug. Requip is a trade name for ropinirole used in Parkinson's disease and sometimes restless leg syndrome.
The pill that has a print of G on one side and 2/55 on the other also is Ropinirole, so its the same drug that you used to have.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
