7 weeks on Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)
I am on a mission to eliminate the need for Mirapex (
Pramipexole
). I have been taking it for over 20 years and it has been very effective at controlling RLS even though it took a larger and larger dose to achieve mastery over the “dancing”.

How were your experiences coming off DAs?
I've taken
Pramipexole
for it nightly for about 6 years of those. I was up to 0.54mg per night, having to increase my dosage regularly to keep its effect on my sleep.

My neurologist suggested it since I’m to not able to tolerate
pramipexole
and sinemet. I need some feedback. One of the side effects I’ve had from DAs is extreme depression/anxiety. I am at the end of my rope.

Sinemet and anxiety
I have been off
pramipexole
for a couple weeks. Monday I was prescribed sinemet. In the last few nights I’ve had a good night, two bad nights and then this morning woke up after some fairly good sleep but my arms were moving and i feel anxious and depressed. Could this be the sinemet already?

Restart pramipexole?
I have just weaned off
pramipexole
due to augmentation. I'm a mess. 2 hours sleep last night. My backup drug, hydrocodone is not working. I don’t want to overdose on that. Should I take some
pramipexole
tonight and/or any night until my appointment so that I can get some sleep?

Changing Medication
I know it's very early days but I've just been taken off Pergolide tablets as they are no longer available and o put on
Pramipexole
. Pergolide worked brilliantly for me but last night I got no sleep whatsoever and my legs have twitched throughout the day today.

Doctor Buchfuhrer's Augmentation Algorithm
As augmentation due to dopamine agonists is such a strong (and unhappy) topic on this site, due chiefly to
pramipexole
, and as it has afflicted so many of us, I thought to post a very concise diagram from Doctor Buchfuhrer to help those needing to find a new direction, and who must help their doctors

Update regarding my chemotherapy (not all miserable)
With no effect there either, I got so frustrated I took a
pramipexole
(sifrol), and rls abated somewhat, though whether it was due to the massaging, leg exercises or
pramipexole
I wouldn't know.

Side effects
I have had Parkinsons since December 2010 and started taking
Pramipexole
with no problems. It definitely helps keep my symptoms under control. About 4 years ago my symptoms started getting worse and my doctor started me on Carbodopa/Levadopa generic for Sinemet.

Medication choice
It seems that
Pramipexole
works for me but leads to the augmentation I've experienced. I've read there's less chance of this with Gabapentin but I've read of it's side effects, some of which I've already experienced.

Update Pramipexole
It's been a year since I decided to wean myself off
Pramipexole
. Good news is I am still
Pramipexole
free! I just want to let others know it can be done, the first month was horrid. The withdrawal symptoms aren't very nice and at points I had been tempted to give in and just take the tablets.

Weaning off pramipexole
I am weaning off
pramipexole
under the watch of an internist. Not my internist but someone I saw after hours because I’m desperate to get my meds figured out. I’d been taking hydrocodone for backup and it doesn’t work anymore. So am weaning off the
pramipexole
and stopped the hydrocodone.

LDN and Pramipexole
I am looking for any information. advise or any experiences with adding LDN to my day when still on a declining but substantial daily dose of
Pramipexole
. I have successfully cut
Pramipexole
from 1.5 mg to 1 mg. (over two and a half months) and the goal is to slowly get to zero.
