MIRAPEX ER (PRAMIPEXOLE EXTENDED RELEASE)

Reduce Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease with Mirapex ER

Mirapex ER is a dopamine agonist drug that may be prescribed to reduce symptoms for those in the early stages of Parkinson’s disease (PD). These include slow movements, tremors, and impaired coordination or balance.

By diagnosing Parkinson’s disease early enough, taking Mirapex ER can postpone the need for Levodopa therapy. Levodopa can cause motor fluctuations when taken long-term so it can be advantageous to put off taking this medication for as long as symptoms allow.

How Dopamine Agonists Work

Mirapex ER works to balance dopamine levels in the part of the brain that controls movement and keep the nerve-firing patterns working normally. Dopamine is one of the many neurotransmitters in the brain and other parts of your body. In your brain, dopamine is in charge of sending signals between a structure in your midbrain, called the substantia nigra which has a major role in reward and movement, and other regions of your brain.

The loss of dopamine results in the symptoms of PD so when patients begin taking Mirapex ER, dopamine levels rise and they are able to walk steadier and safer and the tremors are calmed down. This allows those with PD to carry on with their daily routine without the frustration of not being to eat without spilling or walk without faltering.

Brief Description of Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a degenerative condition of the central nervous system that is both chronic and progressive. Many experts feel that PD is a result of environmental and genetic factors that may vary from person to person. These factors have a hand in the reason for nerve cells dying or becoming impaired so they are no longer able to produce dopamine efficiently. As the level of this brain chemical drops, symptoms can begin to appear. Taking Mirapex ER will help suppress these symptoms, but it is not a cure. As PD progresses, the doctor may recommend another medication to take with Mirapex ER so you can still enjoy performing daily tasks.

Before You Take Mirapex ER

Advise your doctor of other medical conditions or allergies you have before buying Mirapex ER and list any current over the counter or prescription medicine you take or use and include herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements as well. This will help the doctor to determine if Mirapex ER is the right medicine for you.

Things to be Aware of When Taking Mirapex ER

Do not take part in any tasks or activities until you know how Mirapex ER will affect you. Blood pressure should be carefully monitored during treatment with Mirapex ER, as this medication can occasionally cause it to drop. Be aware that some individuals experienced an increase in certain urges that included gambling.

Only immediate-release Mirapex is approved for treating restless leg syndrome.
