How to handle going off mirapex
Once before many years ago I went off the
mirapex
and I had rls around the clock. It was a nightmare. I am afraid this may happen again. I don't mind going off
mirapex
if she has something else for me to take. What happens when I go off the
mirapex
completely. Dont know if I can do it.

How long off mirapex before moving on?
I'm up to one mg of
mirapex
daily after starting on one eighth mg about fifteen years ago. I told my doctor that there are better meds than
mirapex
now and just as the knowledgeable people here have said, doctors are ten years behind because he said if the
mirapex
is working, stay on it.

Mirapex
hi! My first post… just finding out about the dangers of this drug today and I’m in a bit of shock. I was taken off the medication abruptly without warning or notice of side effects/ withdrawal. I have been in agony but thinking it was in my head. how long does one need to be on this med to have damage

Gabapentin augmentation?
I didn’t consider it may be gabapentin augmentation because I had heard it doesn’t cause augmentation like the
Mirapex
I suffered from severe augmentation. Is it possible that this is gabapentin augmentation?

Belbuca and post surgical pain.
I have taken
Mirapex
and Rotigotine with horrible augmentation symptoms upon stopping. I have also taken Gabapentin with terrible side effects. I also have tried several opioids in the past. I have taken Belbuca for the past several years.

Suboxone works!
I suffered augmentation after taking 4 mg
Mirapex
daily. In September, 2023, my sleep study doctor, at The University of Michigan, prescribed Suboxone. Also known as Buprenorphine and Naloxone 2 mg/0.5 mg. It is a sublingual film that I put under my tongue. It was life changing.

First Post from New Member
Eventually settled on Carbo Dopa Liva Dopa and
mirapex
and trazadone. Found out the dangers of the CDLD just before the 5 yr mark. Stopped it and went through INSANE physical withdrawals. Progressively weaned myself off the trazadone. I don't know how.

Grateful to my Neurologist and "HealthUnlocked"!
Traveled the paths of
Mirapex
(augmented) and Ropinerole (augmented). I was recently made aware of a neurologist in my area that specialized and researched RLS. During my recent appointment, he recommended eliminating the Ropinerole and slowly adding Pregablin.

Anyone with RLS have pain as a major symptom, especially with weather change?
I have a stash of
mirapex
and took one a few nights ago, just to prove to myself that this really is RLS and sure enough, it worked, because i have not used it in so long. Meantime, does anyone besides me find that a weather front moving in makes everything worse?

Psilocybin
After taking
Mirapex
, Gabapentin, OxyContin, Methadone, and Horizant, I am desperate for alternatives. The poster lives in CA as do I. I am unable to locate the post via searching and am hopeful that person can reappear for additional conversation. Thank you

Therapulse - Do I really need to scale up slowly the way the maker says to?
I've had RLS for decades & currently take Horizant, methadone, and a small amount of
Mirapex
(I ran into trouble when I tried to drop the
Mirapex
completely so my specialist suggested leaving a small amount in for now).

Trying to determine the right pace for tapering use of Neupro
The first attempt was
Mirapex
. SueJohnson suggested I switch to different medication, but an appointment with my neurologist here in Brasil is not so easy to get so I would like to continue to decrease my intake of Neupro until I can discuss switching meds with my neurologist.

My mom is currently taking .250 mg of
Mirapex

Tapering off pramexole
So he put me on . 125 mg
Mirapex
and everything was OK. If I was an hour or so late taking it I had some heart palpitations and jerking of legs or something weird so I just had to remember to take it on time or very close.

low dose naltrexone
But after many years of battle with augmentation on
mirapex
, and not at all happy with gabapenten nor lyrica, i am really pleased with LDN...it's been the best answer for me.. I encourage others who are discouraged to read about it. Julia

Wondering if dad has RLS instead of PD (or both?). Any RLS indicators here?
When
Mirapex
is in the picture, even at 1-2x/day - pain decreases, swelling decreases, better movements. So in hindsight,
Mirapex
is actually what's working for dad instead. I suspect S to be the hallucination culprit so we're trying to tirtrate its dose right now and def keeping
Mirapex
