Doc is adding Mirapex to Sinemet ...
Decision was to try
Mirapex
. Starting with a .25mg Rx ... take 1/2 tablet a day for 5 days and then titrate up slowly over the next three weeks to 3 pills a day. I am reading up on this medication, and it seems like it is very scary stuff!

Restless Arm Syndrome -Restless Hand Tremor
Tried Sinemet - no response, Tried
MIrapex
2X,3X with some relief but side effects are an issue, .25mg Xamax helps but not enough to allow sleep. Only med that tames the problem is Oxycodone which I take for the extremes of global body pain but my allowance for the drug is controlled.

Tramadol, Lyrica, etc
GP said if he could not tolerate the side effects of Lyrica, he should try
Mirapex
next. Hesitant to do so reading about it on this blog. Like a lot of you, he takes one around 6:30 PM and then two when he thinks he might try to go to bed (11:00 PM ish).

Day 6 of Mirapex withdrawal
Just when I feel like myself I’m afraid I’m gonna leave again 😏😳😬😥😰😱🥺 This is Day 2 of a 30 day withdrawal from
Mirapex
. I’ve been on this evil prescription med for more than 15 years for increasingly severe Restless Legs Syndrome.

Into TRITON II - and awaaay we go!
OK, 2 weeks into the trial. 75% of participants get nausea, vomiting. I never do anything the way others do so none of that for me. Instead constipation with stool as hard as concrete. Miralax, senokot magnesium citrate, Gavrilate. Nothing. So into the ER where the X-ray shows "you're full of it

New medication
Just went to see the doc about switching around meds and she told me to increase the
mirapex
🙁 I told her about augmentation and she said she knew nothing about that. So here I am, about to take two pills instead of one now. She also recommended taking gabapentin if this increase isn’t helping.

Giving up
I’m still taking the second lowest dose of
mirapex
and it’s not doing anything at all.. taking magnesium 200mg a night and cutting back on my caffeine intake.

Diarrhea or more serious?
Hey guys, this is my first post here. Here is my issue. I went from being constipated to having a "fuzzy" bowel movement at least 2-3 times a day. My constipation was so bad that I went to the hospital and they told me to take a double dose of miralax and follow up with my gastroenterologist I also

Day 6 without Mirapexin HELP
Hi all, I feel desperate! Tonight is day 6 coming off Mirapexin and I just can’t take the aggressive shakes at night. I was on 0.54mg and I reduced it gradually as I started taking Lyrica and increasing this one at the same time. I too the decision of stopping completely Mirapexin when my partner

New on here, i am actually the wife of the RLS sufferer. He is not a big computer person so I am sharing what I read and learn with him.
Also, any luck with Lyrica,
Mirapex
and Targinact? Those three drugs have not come up with the GP doctor, the Neurologist or the Sleep Disorder specialist at Stanford. If nobody has tried RELAXIS, get on line and look that up.

What are your experiences with the Neupro patch?
I've had severe RLS for the past few years, and enjoyed some relief with
Mirapex
.

Mucuna Puriens
I took myself off of
Mirapex
and use Mucuna Puriens for my dopamine needs, Valerian Root and melatonin for sleep. Anyone else using supplements rather than pharma y?

Update on Weaning off Pramipexole (Mirapex)
It's been 4 months since I wrote last. At that time I had reduced my original decade long dose of 1.5mg to .75mg over the course of several months taking it at .25 step. I am now at .5mg and have been for a while. As others have reported, venturing below .65 is when withdrawal symptoms really start

Mirapex
. I was on
Mirapex
for 15 years, started out on 1 - 0.25mg at bedtime, it was like a miracle.

Restless legs - 5 years and counting - low iron
-I have never taken any medication to treat it (Requip,
Mirapex
, Gabapentin) by choice My memory has gotten really poor over the last few years which I attribute to my lack of quality sleep.
