What Are The Effects Of Abruptly Stopping Mirapex?

Question: what happens when you stop taking mirapex completely but slowly
Brief Answer:
Slow withdrawal from Mirapex is advised under supervision
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
What are you prescribed Mirapex for? Restless leg or Parkinson's? Was it immediate release or Extended release one?
Mirapex should not be stopped suddenly because of unpleasant withdrawal symptoms like sleep disturbances, BP fluctuations. If you stop slowly you should not experience any of the withdrawal symptoms. I still consider to do it under supervision of your doctor who can prescribe you alternate sleep medication if you have any withdrawal effects.
Hope this answers.
