Trying to determine the right pace for tapering use of Neupro
The first attempt was
Mirapex
. SueJohnson suggested I switch to different medication, but an appointment with my neurologist here in Brasil is not so easy to get so I would like to continue to decrease my intake of Neupro until I can discuss switching meds with my neurologist.

Tapering off pramexole
So he put me on . 125 mg
Mirapex
and everything was OK. If I was an hour or so late taking it I had some heart palpitations and jerking of legs or something weird so I just had to remember to take it on time or very close.

low dose naltrexone
But after many years of battle with augmentation on
mirapex
, and not at all happy with gabapenten nor lyrica, i am really pleased with LDN...it's been the best answer for me.. I encourage others who are discouraged to read about it. Julia

Restless Leg Syndrome and Mirapex
I I found numerous articles that stated that the side effects of
Mirapex
can cause compulsive behaviors. I also, read that Tramadol or Clonezapam (spelling?) may help with RLS. I realize they can be addictive and I would need to be cautious.

Getting Desperate!
I first tried gabapentin with no relief, then
Mirapex
with no relief, then Requip worked like a charm. I have occasionally had to up my dosage and I am currently at 6 mg. I have only had to see my Nurse Practitioner all these years because I've really had no issues until now.

Wondering if dad has RLS instead of PD (or both?). Any RLS indicators here?
When
Mirapex
is in the picture, even at 1-2x/day - pain decreases, swelling decreases, better movements. So in hindsight,
Mirapex
is actually what's working for dad instead. I suspect S to be the hallucination culprit so we're trying to tirtrate its dose right now and def keeping
Mirapex
.

what to do?
She didn’t address that Her reply was “Amantadine versus a dopamine agonist such as
Mirapex
or Neupro patch does she have a preference. ” I have no clue. I know you can’t tell me what to do, but I’m open to opinions or experiences

chronic severe RLS
I've been on
Mirapex
for almost 6 years and only had to increase once after 5 yrs. This medicine saved my life.

RLS and caffeine diet Pepsi
Most of us take
Mirapex
at night which works well most of the time but lately I feel like it’s worse and am having trouble sleeping. I had a suspected maybe it was the CF Diet Pepsi even though it was caffeine free so I stopped drinking it all together and it has made a HUGE difference.

Victory!!
First started treating it with a low dose of
Mirapex
, then slowly had to increase the dose to the maximum allowed. Then experienced augmentation and had to stop taking it and tried gabapentin, etc. but they didn't work.

Introduction and looking for feedback
I've always justified it as a love for learning, but the more I think about the possible side effect of
Mirapex
, and the timing of it, I can honestly say that the intensity seemed to really grow after I started on
Mirapex
all those years ago.

looking for tips
I’ve done calcium/magnesium, iron supplements taken with orange juice, stretching, hot baths before bed,
mirapex
and lyrica. It’s daily and nothing helps. Looking for avenues that I’ve never tried. And yes, light exercise in the evening.

Severe RLS for 40 years
I now take .5 mg
Mirapex
, 1200 mg Gabapenten, 1 mg Roxycodone and 2 OTC Seratame caps nightly. I told my neurologist I didn't like taking Roxycodone she said I could take Methadone instead I don't like the sound of that either.

Just looking for help like most of you.
My PCP has offered to start me on a low dose of
Mirapex
, but I declined due to the augmentation risk I learned about here and on other sites. I'm seeing him again today, armed with the Mayo Clinic Algorithm hoping he will agree to testing my iron levels.

Sigh... 😔🥱😒 Hallucinations side effects from meds on top of neck & back pain affecting sleep schedule
Now that we're a couple days into
Mirapex
alone, he seems to do better, with a little help of daily exercises, but hallucinations are still around. How long does it take for these stupid Hallucinations side effects to go away???

RLS Question
Most of my time is spent on
mirapex
was increased dosage as you can see in my previous post. That made me have terrible withdrawals.

Has anyone tried Seratame?
I usually take the
Mirapex
with dinner at 6:30, the
Mirapex
finally kicks in around 9:30pm but RLS will rise it's ugly head in the morning again, Usually it it has only occurred on one side of my body's arm and/or leg per day and by using a hand held massager, I have been able to calm it.

Spacing out Mirapex/pramipexole or Lyrica/pregabalin throughout the day
She mentioned that
mirapex
was not working for her until she started taking it throughout the day. One with breakfast, one with lunch, one with dinner and one at night. Within a couple of days her RLS was gone. Wondering if this has worked for others.
