> Can anyone tell me if this drug carries a high risk of tolerance and abuse. Please, I am not being in anyway critical - I have a past history of Dexadrine abuse. Dexadrine was the best drug I ever took for depression but got into a very bad time in 1985. Since that time I have had 11 ECT treatments and just about everything under the sun with only limited and brief relief. I have atypical depression, possible "soft bipolar". and unbearable fatigue and sleepiness. Provigil at 500mg. only lasts 4 hours. Does insomnia tend to be a problem with Mirapex? This is a very uplifting thread - thank you all - sorry to be comming in at the tail end.

>I was wondering the same thing myself, and did some looking around - but could not find any references regarding mirapex as an abusable drug, so I assume it's not considered to be one. Seems odd... I would reason that a direct D3 agonist would be a highly euphoric drug at the right doses... but I've never taken Mirapex or any other dopamine agonist, so I can't say.
