Experiences with

Targinact

Would taking a higher dose of Targinact or Gabapentin enable me to take Enzalutamide? Has anyone experience this and did the oncologist find an alternative drug which doesn't make RLS worse? Can Targinact go into Augmentation? As always, the advice of community members is greatly appreciated

is anyone using Targinact and Pregabalin for RLS and what strength? I am taking 15 mg Targinact twice a day (at 9.30 am and about 10.15 pm), together with 450 mg Pregabalin at bed time, but I’m finding I get RLS quite badly early in the evening.

I thought they had written to the neurologist about me trying Targinact instead they asked him what he would suggest he has come back with …wait for it. .,.sinemetI told the doctor no no no and explained why.

These are my final options as I've tried everything else: Buprenorphine, Methadone, [u]I feel lost and don’t know what to do.

Hi I’m just looking for some advice on Targinact and just Oxycodone please.

Gabas, Tramadol, Targinact and the rightfully dreaded Pramipexole. I'd be grateful for your thoughts.

Some information please.Which is the strongest opoid between targinact and buprenorphine please.

I have had one nights sleep in a year and that was 1til 6am .Interestingly I was out that evening and only had 600 mgs of gabapentin and 5mgs of targinact and 1mg Clonazepam.

Still no to being prescribed the targinact i tried my best. Even though she looked it up saw it was used for RLS. She has suggested if i can go private with a neurologist as could take weeks before i get an appointment to see mine. I don’t know how to go about it what i need to do.

I tried Gabapentin , Dyperidamole, Codeine and Targinact at some point yet nothing seemed to help. Once off Ropin and still taking just Gabapentin ,B12 and iron I then went privately to see a neurologist in April and he agreed to prescribe Buprenorphine 0.4 mgs sl tablets.

I am on targinact twice a day and also gabapentin twice a day and this in the “nth” combination that hasn’t worked! I don’t sleep and my legs kick out at night causing my partner to leave the bed regularly if I haven’t already got up!

We have had cases recently where members have been refused Targinact, which IS already licensed for RLS. The opioid bias seems to overrule common sense, compassionate prescribing. If anyone knows of a possible drug research contact, please do let me know.

But I'm still terrified and wonder how much Targinact I'll need to take to get the RLS under control. This condition is destroying my life, my marriage, my friendships, everything.

I’d been really worried I would react badly, especially as I’d tried Targinact in January and felt like I’d been poisoned. How strange that my sleep consultant is licensed to prescribe Oxycodone but recoiled in horror when I mentioned Buprenorphine.

She has however asked my GP to prescribe Oxycodone and I have been on Targinact, and now Longtec , 3 times a day for a few weeks. It has been working well during daytime but does not cover my symptoms 24/7.

Hi everyone, I posted recently asking for advice about Targinact, which I started taking on 10 January. I had such an extreme and horrible reaction that I stopped taking it 15 days later.

For several weeks I was prescribed Targinact for pain relief, but that drug has become unavailable in Cyprus and I switched to morphine tablets (20 mg twice daily, morning and evening). This has somewhat improved my mobility.

Thanks everyone for your help with my last post re: Targinact. I think I am having severe side-effects from the drug, all of which are listed in the leaflet.

I therefore asked my GP if I could try Targinact as I read this is now licensed for RLS. He has agreed and I just need to taper Pregabalin. Can anyone here give their experience of Targinact, which is Oxycodone and Nalaxone (spelling) and a dose that worked?

I knew I was going to need some meds and my Gp is clueless so with this site and another neurologist I ended up on 1800 mgs Gabapentin , 2mgs Clonazepan and Targinact 12 hrly to help with the withdrawing . All my iron levels are fine , I tried acupuncture and cbd patches , waste of time .
