I also take mirapex at night...dosage is at 0.5 four times a day one of which is at bedtime....neuro said this would keep the blood syrum levels from dropping during the night....iti's like getting a head start in the morning as you don't have to play catch up since the levels didn't drop that much over night........also take one 25/100 CR sinemet in the morning and early afternoon.......nothing was said about sleep or lack of sleep...Joan Hartman. ----- Original Message ----- From: Nancy S.
