What Causes Muscle Twitching While On Mirapex?
I take Mirapex for restless leg. If I don t take it at the same time every night, I suffer from the feeling jumping muscles and like I can t keep them still. I want to scream and cry. If I miss it, it s worse. Is this drug addictive? I tried to take Requip instead, but got rebound restless leg (which is what I think happens when I don t take the medication on time). Before I started taking Mirapex I had restless leg, but not the feeling associated with it (the wanting to scream or cry). Now I don t think I ll ever be off of it. If I have a pinched nerve, will that be helped with Mirapex?

hi,
these are the common side effects of pramipexole(mirapex)..for how long have you been on mirapex...these side effects may subside after using for a fortnight or so..if it is not so you can switch to an alternate drug
lyrica(pregabalin).
Many studies show better outcome and less side effect profle with this drug.consult our doctor before doing this..
