Dopamine Agonists -Dr Winkelman Article in Sleep Review.
He confirms that dopamine agonists ( Ropinirole,
Pramipexole
, Neupro patch) all lead to severe worsening of RLS and most doctors routinely overprescribe them instead of keeping levels below the max dose set out by FDA in USA (and in NHS guidelines in UK.)

Making the Effort
She is not taking much in at all, and losing weight … yesterday, I crushed her meds (which isn’t much now) - Baclofen,
Pramipexole
, and Trazadone at night to help sleep —- 95% of the time these days is crushing to administer.

Hello everyone, I am posting because I am totally confused. My sleep doctor who works with my neurologist said that I
I Took
Pramipexole
for man years until I went into Ugmentation and had to get off. My symptoms are as soom as I lie down, my feet have to keep moving. I have to get up and walk. Keep pressure on them. I get on stationary bike, put them on ice, get in hot tub until they calm down.

Reducing pramipexole
I have cut out half a
pramipexole
and due to cut out a second half of one this week. Currently I take a half on a Wednesday, so I thought I would cut a half out on the Saturday. Just to spread out the effects I guess.

ROPINIROLE IS THE DEVIL FOR SURE!
UPDATE: I am now being prescribed the
Pramipexole
0.88mg, one 3-4 hrs before bed, after being told “up your Ropinirole from 2mg to 4mg” which I point blank refused to do. So with the first
Pramipexole
came the proper rested sleep for days. But I feel drunk/tired through the day.

Need help again!!
I tried high doses of gabapentin before I added the
pramipexole
and it did nothing for the RLS but with the
pramipexole
it really helped, do i stay on the
pramipexole
& up the gabapentin dose? Any advice would be much appreciated, I've been down all other routes, ie. Iron etc..

Pramipexole, restless legs and tummy ache
I am cutting down on
pramipexole
. And I really appreciate the advice and help him by members of this group. Does anybody else find that when their legs are particularly restless they also have tummy ache?

bad RLS, recent hip replacement
A year ago she was first prescribed
pramipexole
(0.25 and she takes 1.5 pills) and neurontin to take occasionally, and it first was working great, but in 6 months it got worse, she tried Requip, but it doesn't really help much.

Pramipexole
and Rasagaline and several years later- Sinemet.

Neurologist
I went back on older prescription
Pramipexole
. Still Not a lot they can do except prescription drugs. And it's trial and error, it's been mostly error on my part. They still don't know enough about RLS and millions of people suffering.

How to use Buprenorphine?
I have been on Mirapex/
Pramipexole
for over 25 years. My dosages were increased way beyond today’s acceptable limits. I have been able to wean myself down to .5mg which I have been on the past 3 years. My obsessive behavior is online shopping.

Depressed and desperate
After a painful weaning off of
pramipexole
I was actually doing great on 1200 mg of gabapentin and .50 mg of clonazepam. I take oral iron and my ferritin level is around 52, which I questioned, and the neurologist said the other numbers indicated I am in OK place.

How can I get off Pramipexole and treat RLS without drugs
I recently switched from gabapentin to
pramipexole
due to mental side effects. 3 weeks on it and augmentation set in. My NP says stay on my feet and walk during day, try to sit or lay very little, take hot shower before bed, keep halving dose every week and it will be out of my system in a month.
