m using (Pramipexole) but I suffer a dizziness side effect. I need your help to use a medicine which have not such side effect. Thanks in advance.
My husband is taking clonazepam .05, Lomtrigine 200 mg and pramipexole dihydrochloride 0.25 for depression, anxiety and RLS. He hasn't been able to get out of bed lately and has missed a lot of work. Could this excessive sleepiness be due to the combination of these drugs? It is not that he doesn't want to get out of bed, it's almost as if he is drugged, which led to my question. This is not normal.
It might be restless leg syndrome. RLS is most likely to involve lower extremities but can involve other body parts as well. I got a bad case of it towards the end of my last tx, 48 weeks of triple tx with Incivek. The RLS hit me at about week 36 and continued until about a week after I quit the meds. My internist prescribed a small dose of Pramipexole (a Parkinson's drug) for it but I hated the way it made me feel.
Yesterday my doctor prescribed me Mirapex Pramipexole Dihydrochloride tablets 0.125mg. I took two before bed and no RLS! I slept for 12 hours! BTW I'm down to one 10mg oxyneo and one 5mg oxtcocet. Staying like this for another day and than hitting ground zero tomorrow. Praying it won't be to bad, but with this new med for RLS I think I'm gong to be OK.
You could try to reduce stress and help in relaxing muscles with warm baths, gentle stretching exercises and massage. Low doses of pramipexole has been prescribed by some and found effective. If you have disrupted sleep you could be prescribed anti parkinsonism medicines tranquilisers etc. you may also require iron supplements if iron deficiency is the cause of this. You would need a neurologist’s consultation ideally. Hope this helps. Take care.
Please can one of the doctors help me. I desperately need sleep because I have been plagued by this horrible infliction for the past 2 months now. It can keep me awake most of the night & sleep only comes early morning when this funny horrible sensation subides.
My doctor has offered me tablets called Pramipexole/Mirapexin but I understand they are a brain blocker & I only take them when I am absolutely desperate.
The insurance won't pay for my RLS meds for 3 more days. I didn't notice the dosage when Dr wrote the script so I just doubled it. The rls is driving me nuts!!! Now I'm going to have to take ambien for at least 3 more days. I swear sometimes when one thing goes wrong everything goes to pot! And then I'm here whining like a wimp when there are so many more on here with so much on their plate. I know, I know, I need to suck it up.
m going to have to go through my supplements and meds. The only new med is the Pramipexole .05 twice a day (Mirapex). The supplements are Sam-E, D 2000, A and Magnesium 250 twice a day. I'm going to cut the Pramipexole to once a day. Does anyone see if any one of these would cause this or is there a virus going around?
Talk with your doctor abd see if he or she can put you on a medication called Pramipexole. I am taking it for RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome) It prevents my legs from jerking and twitching so I can sleep at night. First looking into it too see if that is something you might.
Has anyone tried Pramipexole (Mirapex, Mirapexin, Sifrol) for chronic pain? I have had low back pain for about 15 years now. I finally got someone to do an MRI back in June (I think, it was slightly before summer 2016) and they found a herniated disc at L4-L5 and a degenerated disc at L5-S1. The neurosurgeon decided surgery wasn't worth the risk and pain treatment was the best option.
Has anyone used a patch? The only med I take is pramipexole.
It’s 2021 now and I still have RLS but controlled with Pramipexole. I saw a neurologist sleep specialist. But the biggest thing is he put me on 5mg oxycodone Bc I told him I noticed after surgery when I would get RLS and I took a pain pill it calmed down!!! Back in early 2000s he said other doctors may not like what he was doing but he knew it would help!! So began my journey bc then my back got progressively worse and my knees. Had every possible injection known.
The rls was the worse last night, leg still hurtn, not sure why it came out the blue, my energy was so low yesterday, I feel like ugh this morning, on top of that I had a pill dream. I hope it gets better its day 12 today. I do thank u guys for all u guys prayer.
Okay ladies I have not been able to sleep lately and its getting very frustrating...do any of you have RLS and know of anything I can do to help???
Hi,
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurological disorder characterized by unpleasant sensations in the legs and an uncontrollable urge to move when at rest in an effort to relieve these feelings.
Chronic diseases like kidney disease, diabetes, and peripheral neuropathy are also cause for RLS.
If you are moving about in bed to relieve pain, have creepy and crawly feeling in leg, motor restlessness with increase in symptoms as night progresses, a diagnosis of RLS is certain.
m sorry but your description does not seem in the least bit related to RLS... You really know when you have RLS.... But I was in denial all my life or at least until I decided to do the sleep study... I always think of acupuncture when it comes to pain management.... And Aloe Vera.... Taken orally.... I don't know what I'm up against here... But is it possible that the pain is not related to the weight loss?
I think i have posted this probably 7 months ago, but since there are many new ones here, it may help someone...For me RLS was the worst symtom i had, besides sleep( which is always a given) anyway there was someone who had RLS bad , and i think she was on her 2nd or 3rd day.. She went and got a massage...One of those deep tissue, and told the lady to spend the whole 45 minutes on just her legs mostly calves...
