Suggest Alternative Medication For Restless Leg Syndrome

I AM 96 AND have been taking two Mirapex for a long time but the last two nights on one pill as two pills did not help my restless legs one bit, in fact they were worse. Can I stop taking this pill now and try something else. Each pill is 0.125 mg. Thanks.

I really appreciate your concern, in my opinion better to continue the medicine but no need to increase the dose of this, some time it does happen that you may not get proper result but it does not mean that does need to be increased, hope this information may helps you take care and have a nice day.
