@rjjb Hi rjjb, I understand that pramipexole dihydrochloride works very well, but also cares the risk of augmentation. When my primary doctor wanted to prescribe a dopamine agonist, I refused to take it. The risk of augmentation isn't something I could deal with. Ultimately, I found a RLS specialist (neurologist) and he won't prescribe it. He thinks that in time anyone taking a dopamine agonist drug for RLS will develop this problem. It sounds like right now pramipexole dihydrochloride is a positive thing for you, but if this changes, know that it's not you--it's the drug. I fully understand that we RLS sufferers need to do what helps us sleep. Can you tell me what your RLS symptoms are like? How often do you have symptoms now? I'm trying to learn what RLS is like for other people. Thank you so much for answering my posting.
