supplements to help DA withdrawal
I am wondering if anyone has used natural supplements like amino acids to increase
dopamine
while tapering off Pramaprexole? I have wondered if it would help with the decrease in
dopamine
while tapering. Also has anyone used Modafinil with any luck in helping energy and mood?

High-intensity Exercise Can Reverse Neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s Disease
In fact, after six months of exercise, the neurons actually had grown healthier and produced stronger
dopamine
signals.
Dopamine
is a chemical that helps brain cells communicate with each other.

The power of HIIT
They received MRI and PET scans to measure the amount of neuromelanin found in
dopamine
-producing neurons and the protein
dopamine
transporter (DAT) which helps the neurons maintain
dopamine
levels.

Dr Berkowski Article on Dopamine Agonists Oct '23.
https://www.calameo.com/sleeplabmagazine/books/006372046fb2b80cd3776 Dr Berkowski is one of the top US experts on RLS and he firmly believes
dopamine
agonists cause permanent damage to
dopamine
receptors. This means pregabalin and gabapentin often don't work for us, nor do iron infusions.

Patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) report a strong craving for sweets
[u]
Consuming food with a high-sugar content is assumed to lead to an increase in insulin concentration, which could positively influence
concentration in the brain and unconsciously be used by patients as kind of “self-medication” to compensate for a lack of
dopamine
[/u]
in PD.

Exercise & PD
I.e. are there cases of DAT scans showing an improvement in
dopamine
? Have they actually had PD in the first place? Does it mean they improve on non-motor symptoms? Some take less medication due to exercise - so
dopamine
must increase naturally to enable function?

Dr. Jonathan Sackner-Bernstein & Dopamine
Now, we have come across this new postulation/theory that the way to treat our condition is to reduce the production of
dopamine
! I don't know how the blocking of
dopamine
receptors could interfere with or reduce the excess
dopamine
inside the cells.

Dopamine Agonist Withdrawal Syndrome (DAWS)
https://dc.etsu.edu/asrf/2024/schedule/123/ A case report of DAWS presenting as confusion, emotional liability and headache. Most of us who have been through withdrawal from Ropinirole, Pramipexole and Neupro recognise these symptoms, but hopefully, this article and others will help doctors to understand

I've warned her against taking

Free of Dopamine Agonist But ...
Today, with the help of Buprenorphine, I am about 6 weeks free of Neupro. It is no exaggeration to say that I have not slept consistently this well for 30 years. It is absolutely a miracle. I could not be more thankful for the help I have received here that has gotten me to this place. However, there

Have any one heard or tried L-Tyrosine ?
My son bought L-Tyrosine for me, and said it helps PD by research, it can help you make
dopamine
. It is a kind of Amino Acid. My doctor said that you can try it, but, should not take it with levodopa the same time, should take it apart from levodopa. Has someone tried it ?

Pramipexole withdrawals (Dopamine Agonist Withdrawal)
My dr was using Pram off label for depression hoping it would increase
dopamine
and help things out. No such luck. Now I am so messed up trying to get off it. Anyone have horrible mental issues while tapering?

Influence of sunlight on dopamine transporters.
For this, a substance is introduced into the bloodstream that can bind to the '
dopamine
transporter' located in
dopamine
brain cells and recycle
dopamine
after release (to communicate with other brain cells) so that it can be used again.

UK Hospitals-Dopamine Agonists
I just had an appointment with a head pharmacist at St George's hospital in Tooting, London about my next MS drug treatment.We somehow got onto the subject of RLS and he surprised me by actually knowing about the disease and that
dopamine
agonists are bad news.
