Default Mirapex

Hello, I hope everyone is doing well, or at least the beast possible.

Does anyone here take Mirapex for Autoimmune or Fibromyalgia? Do you have weird side effects from it?

I've took it a long time ago. It didn't work at all for me, if I remember correct. I took it for something else, but can't remember what. Billie

Help Taking Mirapex

I have been taking Mirapex for severe muscle cramps even though it is mainly meant for Parkinsons.

I am very sensitive to meds since I never take anything unless absolutely necessary.

The prescription was for one tablet three times a day, but it knocked me out. So I take 1/4 of a pill instead; and, I'm fine and the muscle cramps are now under control.

If you are having severe side effects, talk to your doctor about taking half a pill, and hopefully that will reduce the side effects but still do the job you need it to do.

Good luck.

Di

I think the weirdest side effects I have read about with it are possible OCD's {obsessive /compulsive disorder}.
Like gambling, drinking, sexual...
