I take Mirapex .25 mg. in morning and .25 mg. at bedtime. Not sure how much tht dose you are taking is. (88micro--) .025 is the lowest dose of Mirapex, I think. As you can tell I'm not to well informed. Someone else will probably answer you, with better understanding than I have. Or you could call y our pharmist and ask them.

Take care.

Thanks to rls.org, I have learned so much about my condition. I have received encouragement from my friends here. This is a site I can come to when I am up most of the night, and I vent, and know those who read my messages understand

My Mirpaex pills came in 0.25 mg pills, with a line for easy splitting into 0.125 mg. Half of that (1/4 of the original pill) would be 0.063 mg, or 63 micrograms, a bit less than your dose. Your dose seems low but not insanely so. If it works, that's a blessing, and no need to go higher and risk the horror of augmentation.
