Do anybody know if Zandopa would work without taking Sinemet? I've had PD for almost 15 years and have been on Mirapex and
Amanadine the entire time. I have a prescription for Sinemet, but am weary of starting it. I don't know if my medications have carbidopa? Do you know if it is necessary to take something with the Zandopa or does it contain carbidopa. Please help me if you can. Thanks. Also where did you order it from

11 days off mirapexin.
I am now on day 11 of complete withdrawal from mirapexin and all meds as I want to try and go back to managing them without these heavy drugs having been on them for nearly 3 years - augmentation and rebound is well set in. I am by no means back to normal - I spent between 12 and 4 with a severe jerking

Case study - an update. (might be of interest to "new" sufferers)
Have tried the usual Dopamine medications. ( Mirapexin, Neupro patch and Requip ) All showed varying degress of success in reducing movements during sleep but all left me feeling as tired during the day as when I was on zero medication. Consultant has now suggested we go down a different route and

Is anyone experiencing any of the OCD behavior from Mirapex?
It does take care of the OCD better but also wears off quicker than
Mirapex
, made me very sleepy in afternoons and the tremors were a little more noticeable but it's worth the side affects to me.

Side effects of drugs
Has anyone experienced the compulsive behaviour side effects of taking Mirapexin? My husband has been taking it together with co-beneldopa for over a year but has recently started to exhibit unusual sexual behaviour which he says he cannot help. This is causing problems with him removing his incontinence

I am Living (it up) with Parkinson's and Other Things
Once I got off the
Mirapex
, I actually started to thrive. I went through a Gambler's Addiction inpatient rehabilitation program, again courtesy of the VA. I met a lady and moved in with her, found a neurologist who was a magician at modifying my medication dosages.

Has anyone been taking Mirapexin 4x 0.88mg for more than 8 years?
I have only just found out that Mirapexin should only be taken in the short term. As I have been on them for so long they are now causing more unwanted symptoms such as compulsive shopping, gaming and even some gambling which I have never done before. My consultant has told me to come of these tablets
