This is working very good 1800 Gabapentin 2 mg Neupro patch. 0.125 pramipexole. Was tapering off Neupro but this is working great Should I enjoy of be scared of augmentation?
Have had rls for many years and took mirapex until it wasn’t working as good switched to Neupro patch 3 mg worked great until got severe skin problems started reducing patch gradually was then on 300-600 mg Gabapentin and gradually increased to 1800
After reducing Neupro to 2 mg skin problems are much less but the Gabapentin and reduced Neupro did not control so added .0125 of pramipexole
Too much medicine

I noticed no one has replied to your post. Maybe you've had your questions answered in another Topic, but I am catching up, so I will reply to this post. The answer is " I don't know"

Also be alert for mood swings and depression, which gabapentin can cause (even suicidal thoughts). If this happens, the gabapentin should be stopped, but do it under your doctor's guidance.
While getting your iron status checked and observing yourself for signs of augmentation or depression - yes, enjoy it!!!
