Then I was put back onto
pramipexole
after 8 weeks cold turkey. I had several falls and swollen legs. The GP then decided that I could take oxycodone to help the RLS, as it is already prescribed for my arthritis.

Hi fellow RLS fighters, I’ve been on several meds (
pramipexole
and Pregabaline) and after a few weeks or months I experience tolerance to the meds, the same with cannabis. Now on extended release oxycodone.

Pramipexole - shall I go cold Turkey?
I have been weaning myself off
Pramipexole
and am now down to 1/2 tablet each night. I am up to 150mg of Pregabalin. I’m ready to kick Pram into the bin where it belongs. Those of you who have stopped Pram, shall I go cold turkey now or do 1/4 tablet or one night on one night off?

Ropinirole ( Requip) Ontario Parkinson's
I have tried
Pramipexole
and Neupro Rotigotine patches as alternatives but can not take them due to severe side effects. My neurologist says we are out of options and I will be trying a change of schedule . I will now be taking one (1) levadopa/carbadopa 25 mg / 100 mg, every 1-1/2 hours.

Pramipexole / Pregabalin
After many years on
Pramipexole
and having reached the max dose (6 x 0.88mg), I suffered augmentation and visited my GP. The GP i saw was very sympathetic and started me on Pregablin whilst I reduced the dose of
Pramipexole
..

Gabapentin Diary
Have finally made the move to Gabapentin after ten weeks coming off
pramipexole
. My doctor suggested starting on 300 mg taken three times per day. The first day I had time to take two tablets. Interesting results: slept three hours then woke twitching .

Transitioning off pramipexole
I keep reading the absolute hell many people experience transitioning from
pramipexole
(or some other drug) to gabapentin. The worst seems to be when one is essentially finished with
pramipexole
but have taken very little gabapentin.

Sobriety and preparing withdrawal from Pramipexole
I have been sober for 23 years, but a few years back I started taking
Pramipexole
. This drug has created more problems for me than it has solved.

Spacing out Mirapex/pramipexole or Lyrica/pregabalin throughout the day
My friend and I were discussing our RLS medications. 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

Looking for advice
, and I know I'm probably augmenting on the
pramipexole

Buprenorphine
After slowly coming off years of using the awful dopamine agonists, (
pramipexole
/ropinerole), thanks to the fantastic advice here, I'm now getting up to 8hrs sleep most nights.

Iron Levels
Augmentation last Christmas on
Pramipexole
and a hell of a time transitioning to gabapentin. Unfortunately though I could not stop the attacks even on high doses and taking it as advised by Sue Johnson. Helpful doc allowed me to switch to Pregabalin and self medicate to find a working dose.

refractory RLS DAWS
After preciously augmenting from 3 mg of
pramipexole
after around 6 months of reducing - I am now off. The last dose decrease was the worst and I have been 3 days into being completely off.
