My neuro started me on the same amount of Mirapex for one week, and then increased the dosage to .25 3X /day and 1 week later increased it to 1.5mg 3X/day. Thsi is where I stopped at, and so far it seems to be working. Also, if anyone has sent a message to me in the last 4 days or so, my hard drive crashed, and I've lost your message. Bob .
