In reply to Mirapex/Requip-Anyone Still Benefiting?, posted by jboud24 on November 1, 2004, at 20:29:51
> Just wanted to know if anyone on the board was still finding or has found any relief from anxiety or depression from Mirapex or Requip. I see my new pdoc tomorrow, and I am most likely going to bring it up with him.
Hi Justin.
I've never tried either drug. However, in case you get no replies, I can relate to you some of the experiences reported by other posters. Some people do experience an antidepressant effect, but it rarely seems to be a robust one. The other thing commonly reported is that after a few weeks to a few months, a profound sleepiness - somnolence - appears.
Please wait for some other replies. I don't think you should make a decision based on my reply alone.
Good luck!
- Scott
