Mirapex & urinary tract infections

Has anyone experienced this whilst taking Pramipexole. The side effects of this drug seem endless whilst on the other hand it seems to really help with the RLS.

I had terrible side effects from that particular drug. However not UTI's. Have you noticed any other side effects?

No I have never heard of that beforecant see how the 2 could be linked to be honest.The vast majority of water infections are caused by E coli bacteria .

Thanks 4 reply. I wondered about others- as i have had (among other side effects) 2 bouts of this infection in 2 months & it is listed in side effects (although rarer than some) in WebMD.

Thanks for taking time to reply. I don't think it's a common side effect but it is listed so are other bladder problems.

OMG .... I am in shock. Yes yes and yes again. Am actually at this very moment recovering from a UTI 😈
