Doctors have given me that but it didn't do much against primapaxole .25 mg. But I wasn't sober either when I was taking it. I am now and I hardly ever sleep. Are you taking primapaxole and if yes please let me know if it helps you. I would be willing to try it again

Pramipexol is a very good medication for rls.
Alcohol affects many medicines adversely. It is also a major trigger for rls for many people- sulphates (?)
If you go back to Prami, check out Augmentation in the search panel.
Good luck.
Alcohol can be a cause of rls.
Hello Riskid
If I understand you correctly, you are now still on Pramipexole but not Trazodone, and you are not drinking.
I have not taken Trazodone, but my own long experience tells me that so long as you take pramipexole you will have chronic, serious insomnia. Insomnia is listed as one of the major side-effects, but not all of us suffer it, and it is not often discussed
Benzodiazepines did not work either, the dopamine agonists always win.
benzodiazepines benzodiazepines have worked for sleep they leave me somewhat groggy in the morning but it soon subsides. I have not taken trazodone in a sober State of Mind but I have read many many things about dopamine Agonist. It wasn't alcohol it was another substance that increases dopamine to a level of 1000 times that of normal level. Now from what I understand it takes about a year to 2 years for my chemicals in my brain to level out. I had restless legs as a child and it went away in my teen years and it came back in a mad way when I sobered up even in my addiction I was suffering for a few years probably because I wore out my dopamine receptors and givers. The good news for me is that I might go back To normal however I am worried that the dopamine Agonist won't allow my chemicals to come back completely normal to a level that would stop my RLS does Trazodone work for sleep or is there another medication that I can use to get off of The Agonist
