I'm new here
Experienced rebound and possibly augmentation with sinemet, Took
pramipexole
for about ten years and switched to ropinirole three years ago when
pramipexole
was no longer effective. Am now definitely experiencing augmentation with ropinirole and am in the process of weaning myself off it.

New here... Looking for options
Hi... I am new here. RLS sufferer for 48 years (since age 6) and diagnosed 20 years ago. question... what would one do for their RLS if they go off of Pramipexol? I am on pramipexol (0.5mg 2x/day) & Gabapentin (300-600 mg/day). I've tried everything out there and am now somewhat trying CBD oil and cutting

UPDATE
I have written a few times on this site. It is pretty obvious from all the entries by different sufferers and what they say and recommend that this awful disease has different properties for different people. It is very individual, and the remedies are as well. It's whatever works for you, the problem

Medication help
My questions are do either Ropinirole XL or Rotigotine patch have less chance of augmentation than the other dopamine meds (
Pramipexole
) as I'm thinking of trying them alongside my Gabapentin. The other question is should I change from Gabapentin to Pregabalin.

I hate my GP - making me feel like a drug addict
I have tried
Pramipexole
and also now on Gabapentin 900mg. She said she would not prescribe painkillers at all for RLS as they are addictive and stop working. I asked to be referred to Neurologist who would prescribe them.

Just started to come off Pramipexole .. any one else finding it really tough?
I has been four weeks since my specialist has placed me on gabapentin, carbamazapine and clorazapam in preparation for me to come off
pramipexole
after 22 years. Last Monday was the first drop in
pramipexole
, -0.0088mg from my morning 'dose'.

roll back in medicines.
Months ago I had to stop
pramipexole
( 1,05 a day ) as rigidity was causing problems. Had to switch to levodopa 25/100 half a pill twice a day. After some months, for my curiosity, I switched back to 0,52
pramipexole
, quitting levodopa.

The cold turkey thing worked
Dear All, thanks for all the kind words, and advice when i wrote two months ago i had gone cold turkey off Pramipexol and after 10 days I still had restless legs but nothing like the electric shock type symptoms when on the meds, and I was still waking up every half an hour. I went gluten free, sugar

Medication concerns
I have been on the max dose of
pramipexole
for 15 yrs . I am also taking proclorperazine and oxybutynin all of which (I have read) can contribute to early onset Alzheimer’s Does anyone have any experience of this or had had success with changing rls and/or musculoskeletal prescriptions Thanks

Gabapentin vs Pramipexole Help please!!!!
I was prescribed
pramipexole
which did work but got scared when read about augmentation and impulse disorders as I have those tendencies anyway. GP has prescribed Gabapentin 100mg three times a day going up to 200mg three times a day in 5 days.

No sleep!
I felt like taking my original dose in the knowledge that I'd most likely be asleep 2 hours later, but this is a long term harmful drug and I don't want to be taking
Pramipexole
for any longer than I can help.

Am I doing the right thing?
I am new to this forum, and feeling uncertain of the way things are going regarding my
Pramipexole
- so it's good to read what others say on the subject. Started taking 1 tiny tablet 0.088mg 18 months ago. This was then increased to 2, then 3 and now the equivalent of 4. (0.35mg).

Apomorphine pump; does anyone have any experience?
He was prescribed Madopar, then
Pramipexole
and finally Sinemet but none gave any significant improvement and he was then referred to a neurologist who thinks he probable has MSA-P It was suggested he might benefit from an apomorphine pump (if we choice to go that way) but I can find very little information

Oxycodone and RLS
I'm also on
pramipexole
but the neurologist added Targiniq because I only sleep about 2-3 hours. I took 5 mg. Targiniq last night and got tired, but I could not go to sleep. I got a terrible headache and less sleep than I usually get.

Tyrosine
I have recently added Omega 3 but when looking into
Pramipexole
and dopamine I came across Tyrosine. It seems you can literally buy a supplement for anything these days but wondering if its worth looking into. I havent taken the prescription for
Pramipexole
.

Pramipexole.
I have been prescribed
Pramipexole
for my RLS. After taking gabapenten for 2 weeks with absolutely no improvement I am hoping for a small miracle with this new prescription. Has anyone had any joy with it?

Buprenorphine/Subutex
For those of you who have successfully withdrawn from
pramipexole
, did you still experience other withdrawal symptoms outside of refractory RLS?
