At night, I take a regular 25/100 Sinemet, around 9 or 10PM, and then when I go to bed, I take a 25/100 CR, which takes about 2 hours to kick in, and then I have 4 or 5 hours after that for it to work. How much Sinemet are you taking? If you can take it, and it does the good, I believe that it is one of the best on the market, with the least side effects. You just have to find the right dosing schedule. And, no taking it during the day. There can be augmentation, (symptoms during the day), after awhile, and that is when I take a drug holiday from it, for 5 days. And then you are back to your original dosing schedule. Others are on Mirapex, or something else, so I am sure you will hear from them also. And some have had good results. Seemingly some people can take certain drugs, and others cannot. What I mean, is, that the RLS goes away, and you have tolerance for the drug. Doreen,63,Birmingham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 13, 1998 Report Share Posted November 13, 1998 Danial, Welcome to the group, you are with a bunch of really nice people who are very interested in you and how you are doing. Do please keep us posted on how you do on your meds. I don't take mirapex, but it sure seems to work for a lot of people. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
