can gabapentin make RLS worse or cause anxiety attacks?
If so will this decrease given time and should I increase the dose at the end of week three as I start to decrease the
pramipexole
.

Gabapentin
Hi, I have now been off
pramipexole
for six week. I initially started on pregablin as the alternative. It did nothing. I am now on Gabapentin, was told by GP to take 300mg for 5days, then 300mg twice a day for five days. Then 300 mg three times a day for 5days.

On pramipexole for less than a month minimum dose went off having withdrawal symptoms
Hi all, so I have mild to moderate RLS, went on
pramipexole
(minimum .125 dose) for about 3 weeks, started causing racing heart and anxiety after 3 weeks so went off it two days ago. First night was fine, last night started up at 2pm and had a rough night. Got about 4 hours sleep.

Gabapentin Hell!
I am going back to my GP to either try a different dopamine antagonist or go back to
Pramipexole
and will have to just put up with the consequences of augmentation.

Various Questions
Hi I'm now 3 weeks off
pramipexole
and started Gabapentin a week ago. The first 2 of those weeks I was in hospital having surgery for something else and recovering with opioid painkillers which removed the need for anything else.

RLS worse after knee replacement
I've taken
Pramipexole
for a long time and it's worked. However, after recent knee replacement surgery (7th Feb), the RLS is driving me mad. I'm up every night after 1 or 2 hours' sleep and end up taking an opioid to settle it.Can the pain from the knee be causing it? Any advice welcome.

does anyone know if it’s safe to take 300-600 mg of Gabapentin while taking 600 mg of horizant and 2 mg of pramipexole?
details: I was taking 3-4 mg of
pramipexole
for my RLs. Developed augmentation. Sleep dr put me on 600 mg of horizant and supposed to taper the pram. I’m at 2 mg of pram. Today went to ortho for a back issue and waiting on mri appt.

Augmentation on multiple DAs?
Just curious - if one augments on a DA like
pramipexole
, what happens if you switch to a different DA? Is augmentation likely to occur fairly quickly? Will the new DA even work or will it pick up right where you were on the old one - in augmentation?

Pramipexole - the latest.
Here’s the situation: I have spent the last 30 days slowly withdrawing from
Pramipexole
. As I write I have now done 4 days without any
Pramipexole
. Here are my observations: Psychologically, I feel much better knowing that I will never touch
Pramipexole
again.

Bupenorphrine — medical support?
After 10 years with
pramipexole
and gabapentin I have reached the end of the line with augmentation and I am considering moving to bupenorphrine. Can someone please tell me if there is an authoritative study, or preferably a hospital protocol, recommending bupenorphrine, which I can show my GP?.

Red Letter Day & Update
I know that the reduction/elimination of the caffeine and sugar have also made a drastic difference in the RLS symptoms, but the biggest difference seems to have been - for me personally, getting off the
pramipexole
.

buprenorphine, pregablin, opiates
So for the knee replacements months later, I actually had to go back to
pramipexole
for almost 4 weeks before surgery. All of that to say, how do you move from this combination over to a low dose opiate?

Dipyridamole didn't work for me
If my 12 years on
pramipexole
, with augmentation happening for the final 6 months, worsened my symptoms to this point, and this is now 4 months post-
pramipexole
, is this indicative of my underlying RLS baseline, or might it improve eventually after more time off
pramipexole
?

Tramadol regimen
After trying nearly everything else for a few years (infusions, gabapentin, pregabalin,
pramipexole
and then tapering off of that, and so on), my neurologist now has me taking 100mg tramadol and 225mg pregabalin.

Awful repeated behaviours of hospital staff
Pramipexole
is used for Parkinsons as well some other problems ... He was insistent and rude. He's never heard of RLS. Not only that they persistently gave me drugs which were contraindicated against
Pramipexole
. .. Cyclazine for one.

My Story
I took
Pramipexole
1mg and slept the entire night w/o having an RLS episode. So, I think being somewhat active when symptoms occur, I find that it helps but also a doctor that knows his business.

Extreme muscle stiffness
I was prescribed Madopar and
Pramipexole
which later was replaced with Rotigotine transdermal patches. I had a very strong but paradoxical reaction to all three dopaminergic medications and eventually l ended up in A&E where my dose was increased thus making my life more difficult.

Duloxetine to Mirtazapine
I been on Gabapentin from 23.02.24 and was previously on
Pramipexole
but had compulsive eating so asked to change. I stopped
Pramipexole
straight away and moved to Gabapentin and went from 300mg three times a day to 900mg three times a day and not really helped me.
