In reply to Mirapex...what is it good for?, posted by King of Nothing on July 22, 2007, at 10:39:02
My husband has been on 1 mg. Mirapex for approximately 3 years. (He takes at bedtime for RLS.)
There is a lot of info out there in regards to the Mirapex possibly causing compulsive behaviours. I believe that my husband's current alcoholism might very well be attributed to the Mirapex he is on. He is also on Effexor .. which may be causing this problem too.
Just a warning though. I received a communication from a doc off of a RLS website. He indicated to me that even just the 1mg that my husband has been on, was quite a high daily dose for RLS.
