Is there any help after a shopping addiction while on Mirapex?
I was on
Mirapex
for about 9 months, and ran up about $30,000 due to shopping addiction. I've been off of it for about 6 months and just now getting to where it isn't a daily struggle. Does anyone know if there is legal recourse for this side effect? The doctor did warn me of possible OCB.

DR B REPLIES....... NEUROLOGISTS OUTCOME
You are already on a high dose of
Mirapex
(Mirapexin) and are developing augmentation (worsening of your RLS from taking a dopamine agonist like
Mirapex
) which means that increasing the dose will only add fuel to the fire.

More details about "slow release mirapexin" please.
Elsewhere on this site people have mentioned "slow release mirapexin". What is it? The reason I ask is that I presently take 3 x 0.088mg "normal" mirapexin before going to sleep and for a few months I have had an undisturbed night. Now it's wearing off in the small hours. It did this before, which was

Neurologists Outcome
Well, not what I thought. After waiting 7 months to see a certain consultant. He really didn't help much. Told me my doctor could give me whatever, asked if Ihad taken the following..... then he rattled off about six different drugs I had never heard of. I said no, why not, I haven't been offered them

does anyone have any problems with side effects of mirapexin?
This sounds laughable but I have been taking the medication for about 5 years and have become an online gambler. I am in my late 50's and have never had any interest in this sort of entertainment.. I am embarrassed to go to my doctor but even more concerned that he might change my medication.

I am so confused
He's 69, had PD for 5 years, on Sinimet and
Mirapex
and also has Lewey Body Disease. His walking has gotten really bad the last few weeks to the point he can hardly move even with his walker. Neuro refers him back to family dr. who puts him on steroids which doesnt help.

Max dosage of Mirapexin
I saw a post a short time ago from someone taking 24mg per day of Pramipexo;e (Mirapexin). At the time, i could not find a way to post a warning that this is way over the maximum dose of 4 mg. i hope he sees this. Ron

Is PD better or worse with medications?
I have thus far tried 2 meds:
Mirapex
and Requip and the side effects far outweighed any therapeutic effect. In fact there was not any therapeutic effect AT ALLl in both cases!
