Nothing is working
He is now on
Pramipexole
and tried Neupro patch. 4 mg patch didn't help with tremors, so the dosage was increased to 6 mg. Because of these patches he started having bladder problems. ( could no go to the bathroom). Went to the ER twice.

Restarting pramipexole
I started taking
pramipexole
9 years ago at .125mg/night. It worked great but over time I had to keep bumping up the dosage for it to be effective. When I reached .75mg/night I went into severe augmentation.

feeling almost good ...
He still plays soccer and is completely independent (after having had great problems with
pramipexole
). He gave me courage, I wanted to share it. Good day to all.

When will this end?
I have survived on
Pramipexole
for this time but have now gone into augmentation. I took my last
Pramipexole
pill three days ago having gradually reduced the dose and the Doctor started me on 300 mgs of Gabapentin the same day.

Levetiracetam (Keppra) to help in some cases of RLS.
Tim61, I posted recently about withdrawing from
Pramipexole
, which I’m doing at the moment, not very nice. My GP eventually discovered I was suffering with myoclonic jerks, not restless leg syndrome. I saw him yesterday’ & he has agreed to try keppra ( levetiracetam) 250mg at night.

Pramipexole withdrawal.
I’m taking
pramipexole
0.260mg prolonged release tablets, & would like to know the best way of withdrawal. They were prescribed for rls , when I’m actually suffering from myoclonus jerking in my legs. I’ve been on the
pramipexole
for approx 3yrs, but I’m sure it is making the leg jerking worse.

Pramipexole day time tiredness
Pramipexole
is working amazingly and I have just been moved to 2x0.088mg per night. I'm sleeping very well on it.

Torture
Having had RLS since I was about 12 (1952-53), and it has become worse over the years, the
pramipexole
hydrochloride monohydrate, called Sifrol in Australia has been wonderful for the last ten years, however, it augmented and caused huge problems, although I did not realise what was happening.

Update on pramipexole and kratom
Hi, well firstly I’ve stopped
pramipexole
again due to it giving me panic attacks, which is a shame as it did help. Tried kratom capsules which didn’t help but I think I wasn’t taking enough, but didn’t fancy taking 10-15 all at once. So, I’ve ended up back on gabapentin.

Anyone else had insomnia on Ropinirole? What do I try next?!
I suspect my consultant is going to want to try
pramipexole
or neupro patches next and I am really worried that they will have just the same effect as the ropinirole, ie wide awake all night with a period of fitful REM sleep just before the alarm clock goes off.

RLS getting worse naturally or augmenting... how do you know?
Up until now I’ve only taken one .125 mg
Pramipexole
2-3 hours before bed. Can I augment on the lowest dose or is my RLS getting worse on it’s own? This has been a wonder drug for me.

Am I right to be worried?
Hi all, out of shear desperation I started taking
pramipexole
again because it works for me, although it gave me panic attacks, I was desperate. So now I’m taking 1 x 0.88 every other day because I’m worried about augmentation. Do you think it’s a good idea to take them?

Pramipexole off and on
Pramipexole
works well for 3 weeks and then tapers off. What if I take it for 3 weeks and then come off it for 3 weeks. This way I would have 3 good weeks in every six, instead of 6 bad weeks. Perhaps this has been covered before but if so, I missed it.

DAs addicting?
Still struggling with withdrawal from
pramipexole
. It’s been going on for months. I went to a sleep specialist who’s only plan would include a DA. I told him I cannot take DAs since I get terrible side effects, both while on the drug and after withdrawal. He does not believe DAs are addictive.

Pramipexole ?
Ciao a tutti , After a visit with Dr.C , and following his treatment for 3 months , I've been visited also at the university of Pisa ( where I was diagnosed 6 months ago ). Even if they have seen no sign of worsening of the situation , they advise me to start Pramipexol ER at 0,56 gr/day to release

Do you have to take pramipexole every day for it to work?
Although I have a packet of
pramipexole
(sifrol) hanging around in the kitchen, I've only taken one tablet every blue moon or so, mainly to avoid the augmentation and withdrawal symptoms which seem to accompany daily use.
