increase in RLS while in hospital with severe pain on morphine
I’m on minimum dose of
pramipexole
and 100g of gabapentin. I’m having high dose of long release morphine and oromorph . Against this background my RLS symptoms have become awful too. I am in so much pain and RLS discomfort I don’t know what to do. Ideas???

Anyone out there who can advise on how to transition between Pramipexole and Gabapentin?
So, my story....I had a brief spell on Ropinerole around 12 years ago but was switched to
Pramipexole
when I couldn't cope with the side effects.
Pramipexole
has been on repeat prescription for 10+years without even one question by my GP practice.

Help needed please
After 30 years of
Pramipexole
I went on Pergabalin. I was dizzy with it and had many falls. I am now on Gabapentin 600 mg 2 hrs before sleep and it doesn't seem to help enough to give me quality sleep.

RLS and antidepressants
About a month ago I dumped
Pramipexole
and am going through withdrawal. Ugly! But I want to persevere. I do take gabapentin 300 x 2 at night. I have been spacing them out thinking this may give me more sleep but given I am in withdrawal I can’t tell if this is the right thing to do. Any ideas?

Restless legs - augmentation - dosis af medicine and iron ?
Next question: I am trying to taper off
pramipexole
to switch to pregabalin. My neurologist said: You can just switch over (from 0.7 mg
pramipexole
to 75 - 150 mg pregabalin). My GP not quite as consistent - try a little at a time.

RLS Symptoms
Hello, I have had RLS for several years and have an appointment with a specialist in October to help with weaning off
Pramipexole
and overall management of the symptoms. At this time I feel that some of my symptoms are “programmed” and I’m helpless to stop them.

Neupro Patch
It WILL cause worse augmentation than Ropinirole or
Pramipexole
and the experts see it happening every day. Neurologists who do not treat thousands of RLS patients a year seem to think Neupro has less risk of augmentation. That is not the case.

Help please
I have now ended up on
pramipexole
it worked a treat at first but within 9 months I have gone up to 5 x 0.88 tablets at night and it’s not working! I see the Neurologist again on Friday and wondering what else I could try.

Asha and Chewie
I was taking
Pramipexole
for over 20 years with no warning of what it would do to my bank account with all the over spending I did.

Too much electrolytes?
I have now been off
pramipexole
for 52 days, and off kratom for more than 3 months. I stopped taking
pramipexole
in the spring of last year, replacing it with kratom. When I started building tolerance for kratom I decided to quit, but the withdrawal was really horrific with acute RLS.

NTX100 Tonic Motor Activation System
After 20+ years of taking
Pramipexole
for RLS, I have successfully weaned myself off this terrible drug. I was taking 1.5mg x2 a day and against all advice, quit cold turkey about 3 weeks ago. Wow! What a difference it has made.

Pramipexole Panic
Ten days without
Pramipexole
and I’m starting to doubt myself: I can’t talk properly, I can’t think straight, I can’t read and I can’t keep still because my legs are twitching and screaming with pain from the moment I wake. I know massive anxiety is making this so much worse.

Intermittent RLS: why carbidopa/levodopa????
Can anyone enlighten me as to why the Mayo Clinic suggests carbidopa/levodopa (sinemet) as prn therapy as opposed to ropinorole/
pramipexole
? I used to have persistent RLS (managed with ropinorole) which thankfully stopped after I stopped my SSRI.

I am weaned off
pramipexole

About to have my first Ferritin infusion
I am taking 2mg of
Pramipexole
and 1200 mg of Gabapentin per night which enables me to get a few hours of reasonable sleep . I also have to be careful not to sit for any length of time during the day or the RLS crank up.

Why is pramipexole bad?
I've been on
pramipexole
for fifteen years and unless I miss a dose it seems to be working. It seems everyone here is trying to get off it for some reason. I'm sure the advice to get off it is valid but I seem to be doing alright on it except possibly moderate insomnia.
