Free of Dopamine Agonist But ...
I have noticed a steady decline in my mental health since starting the
Buprenorphine
and that's saying a lot considering the state I have found myself after struggling with RLS for so many years.

pregabalin vs buprenorphine
When I started, I assumed I would want to come off the
buprenorphine
and replace it with pregabalin, mainly because of my doctor’s unease with opioids. But now I’m wondering what choice other sufferers would make? The
buprenorphine
(Suboxone) seems to be working well (2mg/.5mg strips).

Escape from Augmentation
I intend to ask the GP to change me onto
buprenorphine
tablets instead of patches. Has anyone gone through a similar scenario and found as the month go by that they can reduce the
buprenorphine
or any other RLS barriers.

The 20 mcg
Buprenorphine
patch has helped my RLS hugely though I know it's lurking but I can now sleep which is amazing!

buprenorphine study
Study population was people with opioid use disorder (OUD) who are taking
buprenorphine
to manage it. Apparently an unusually high percentage of participants had RLS symptoms. I thought Bup alleviated symptoms?

Any last advice before I embark on the battle to try Buprenorphine? Should I increase my pregabalin dose?
I'd be really grateful for any thoughts on remaining treatment options before I start waging war with my GP practice to try
Buprenorphine
.

any way to increase ferritin without increasing iron saturation?
My RLS has been under control via .4mg of
buprenorphine
a night. I guess I will just stop the iron supplements and see what happens, unless anyone has any other advice? Thanks

Medical cannabis for RLS/PLMD
Looking at this in case
Buprenorphine
does not work. So far on 0.4 sublingual tablet, severe side effects during day and not working at night now!! Worked for first 3 nights. Beginning to think that husband cannot take any prescribed meds that work anymore!!

Buprenorphine (Butec) patches - stomach pain
I am just wondering if anyone else has tried
Buprenorphine
and had the same thing or other side effects from using it? Do they ease the longer you use the patches for? Many thanks

Buprenorphine withdrawal during day
Husband taking 0.4
Buprenorphine
sublingual at night. Getting some sleep at last, approx 5/6 hours waking every 2 hrs but at least some sleep. Trouble is he is getting opioid withdrawal next day inc RLS. How do we get over this, anyone else had this problem.

RLS regimen for occasional big flare-ups?
I’m hoping that I can either take an extra 75 mg of Pregabalin (or more if my ultimate dose is more than 150) or some
buprenorphine
. Wondering what other people do?

Opioids for refractory RLS-Dr Berkowski
Dr Berkowski recently did a study on
Buprenorphine
and believes it is the safest opioid to to use for RLS bevause of its low risk of respiratory depression and its long half life. His website contains lots of webcasts and useful information.

Tigger is bouncing around Winnie the Pooh, because he is happy his RLS is better
Well I spoke to the Pharmacist who shares the same building as the doctors and asked if she ever dispenses
Buprenorphine
Patches prescribed by doctors at the surgery and she replied that she does and couldn’t understand why they wouldn’t prescribe for me.
