AUGMENTATION

[mysterylady60]

I'm taking Pramipexole (mixapexin) for my restless legs. I've heard somewhere that some tablets for Hayfever (I take cetirizine) can exacerbate augmentation... Does anyone know if this is so? And are there any anti histimine tablets are more suitable... Doctor doesn't seem to know. ❤

Claritin or Allegra seem to be ok.

Antihistamines don't cause augmentation but do exacerbate rls.

Go to the rlsuk site for a leaflet on medications to avoid which you can print out and donate to your medical team.
