Experiences with

Mirapexin

Years of mirapexin then tramadol then pregabalin and gabapentin in turn. Mirapexin worked for years until I augmented and also tramadol augmented. Preg and gaba never worked although I persevered until I reached a high dose. Probably due to being on mirapexin.

I took pramipexole 0.19 and then 0.38 mg from 2021 to 2022, and then Mirapexin ER 0.26 mg in 2023. My initial RLS was mild. I suffered from augmentation after about 6 months under DAs. My DA withdrawal was a total failure. I was put under Neupro 2mg after an abrupt stop of Mirapexin.

I am at my wits end , it is about 6 months now since I finally stopped the Mirapexin so I don't think it is a reaction to that). I am getting 1-2 hours sleep at night.

Have had PD symptoms since January 2022 began Mirapexin in July.After a year symptoms got worse,changed physician who gave bigger dosage of mirapexin and added Madopar1/2x3.

My gp has heard from the hospital about changing my meds from Mirapexin to oxycodone. I am taking Tramadol at the moment to cope with withdrawal from Mirapexin. Gp says I have to wean off Tramadol before I take Oxycodone. Help! How will I manage that. I am taking 3 or 4 100g Tramadol.

I have been suffering RLS for years and using mirapexin for treatment but I don't like it. I want to change but can't find a specialist in Ireland to help. Has anyone on this forum from Ireland had any good contacts. Tia

I had colonoscopy and gastroscopy a few years ago when I Augmented on Mirapexin and was also anaemic. I have a hiatus hernia and Diverticulitis. No symptoms. Please advise. I take ferrous bisglycinate on alternate days with effervescent vitamin C on empty stomach.

Should I re introduce the 1/4 tab until I can get something to take the place of Mirapexin. Or is this a backward step.

I need to come off Mirapexin for the second time and ha ve been managing the withdrawals myself with the help of TramadolI had set such store to this appointment but came away so disappointed.

hello my mum posts on here a lot about her rls. she is currently withdrawing from mirapexin and is going through hell she has today been prescribed butran patches and has just started the today she is in a dreadful state hasnt slept for 2 weeks and today has started to loose her memory over things,

I finally took my last ever 1/4 tablet of Mirapexin on Saturday after having gone from 6 per day. I am taking Buprenorphine which I guess has helped but it has taken me a really long time to move from 6 to none. I was taking them for over 20 years.

Hey everyone, this is such a good forum for RLS, any advice welcomed. I've had RLS since 2019 which conincided with strong perimenopause symptoms, notably poor sleep/anxiety. I had no idea what it was at the time, but after being away on holiday and symptoms suddenly coming on ( 3 nights with zero

I started staking Mirapexin 5 years ago. It brought great relief but I started to gain weight as in not being able to control what I eat and also impulse buying. My consultant said to come off mirapexin and try gabapentin. So I’m now in 1200 mg of gabapentin and it doesn’t seem to help at all.

I got myself off Mirapexin…nightmare but succeeded. I was recommended Gabapentin but even 100mg absolutely killed my stomach ( I have reflux). Took 4 days of stomach tablets to recover. After a year and 2 months I still have Rls every night.

For years I took mirapexin till I augmented. I tried Pregabalin but I felt dizzy all the time and I put on a lot of weight quickly. I started tramadol and then alternated between that and mirapexin ( yes I went back on it). I coped like this for a long time. Often with the help of Kratom.

First the dreaded mirapexin and then tramadol nothing is working at the moment. I was on 0.09 mg mirapexin. Now I'm on 50mg tram. Even if I take 100mgs it's not working so I'm obviously augmenting. Even Kratom isn't helping.

My iron infusion is scheduled for Monday, May 5. I’ve tapered my mirapex down to 0.0625 once a day. Does anyone have advice about how quickly I would see results from the infusion? Do you think I should completely end the mirapex before the infusion? Does timing matter? I have been on my current dose

Greetings to one and all from Taipei City, Taiwan. 64 years old male, first sleep study 2015: sleep apnea - CPAP therapy, successful [atrial regurgitation (leaky valve)]. RLS, PLMD, myoclonus nocturnus - Clonazepam [tapering up to 0.5mg./night to date], Pramipexole [0.125mg./night from September 2024

if ordered to take magnesium twice daily, what type of magnesium is best for RLS specifically and what’s the proper dosage if diagnosed with a magnesium deficiency? also…. NEVER quit Mirapex cold turkey…….

Hi, 2400mg 4,6,8,10:00 Gabapentin is no longer controlling my RL. I started 30mg gummies four days ago and no help, until last night, no RL??? How long does it take for CBD to take effect and how much are people taking? I also had two iron infusions 8 and 7 weeks ago, with (sadly) no joy. I've been
