Pramipexole v Ropinorole

I have taken 2 mg of Ropinorole for many years and it just stopped working. My GP has given me Pramipexole 2 x 0.88mg. They work and give relief for longer but I still find sleep difficult. If after a month of Pramipexole I went back onto Ropinorole would the augmentation I experienced have gone as I would have been off the Ropinorole for a month??

You can but try to switch back to the Ropinerole, a month might be enough to reset it to work again without the augmentation. Longer than a month would probably be better, but you never know til you try. Good luck, cefndaniel... :)
