For restless leg syndrome caused by MS. stops my legs needing to move or stretch and so lets me sleep. Also helps me get off to sleep. However by 4:00am it has stopped working. If i forget to take it, the next night i can't sleep due to legs spasing out all the time. This has been a wonderful medication for me.

I was prescribed Mirapex for Restless Leg Syndrome. I caused abnormal thinking, severe edema (swelling) in my legs, feet and arms, and I went for about two months without sleeping. If you or your family notice behavior changes, notify your doctor immediately!!!
