I wrote to my GP today, enclosing information about pramipexole and its role / side effects in the treatment of restless legs.
This is the reply.
“ I can confirm receipt of your correspondence. I am sorry you have suffered unpleasant side effects. I would be most interested to see the information you refer to. I have looked up the CKS guidelines for restless legs which were updated in July 2022 and pramipexole is still listed as a first line treatment.
If you have links then please feel free to attach them to a response. If this is a learning point for the clinicians involved I will most certainly act upon it.”
I have responded and included all the relevant links which I found on here.
