Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms and your symptoms are most probably related to side effects of anti-psychotics.
In addition to Mirapex (pramipexole), you may also benefit from trihexiphenidyl.
Vitamins such as vitamin B12 and D supplements would also help.
Coenzyme Q may stop further deterioration.
I hope my reply has helped you.
I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
