A member asked:
I am on initial dose of .125mg of pramipexole for rls, can i stop it anytime without risking side effects or any withdrawal symptoms??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If you wish to modify your dosing, would do this in concert with your doctor, not independently. Pramipexole is not an addicting agent, so there would be no withdrawal, per se, but likely exacerbation of RLS symptoms if abruptly discontinued.
