FDA approval of pramipexole

Is pramipexole available in the UK on NHS?

Pramipexole is available on the NHS in the UK. It can be prescribed by healthcare providers for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease and restless legs syndrome.

Mechanism of action

Pramipexole dihydrochloride is a selective dopaminergic agonist that works by stimulating dopamine receptors in the brain. It may be used alone or with other medicines such as levodopa. It helps to treat the symptoms of Parkinson disease and restore dopamine activity, which is deficient in Parkinson’s disease and implicated in restless legs syndrome (RLS).

Uses of pramipexole

Pramipexole tablets and extended-release tablets are primarily used for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and impaired movement. It is also used for the treatment of restless legs syndrome, a condition characterized by an irresistible urge to move the legs, usually accompanied by uncomfortable sensations.

Dosage of pramipexole

Pramipexole dose will vary depending on the condition being treated, as well as the individual patient’s age, weight, and overall health. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by a healthcare professional.

Precautions and warnings for pramipexole

  • Pramipexole should not be used in individuals who have had an allergic reaction to the medication or any other ingredients in the formulation
  • Pramipexole may cause new or worsening mental status and changes in behavior, including psychotic behavior during treatment or when starting or increasing dose
  • It is important to inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions, especially kidney disease, liver problems, or hypotension (low blood pressure), as well as any medications you are currently taking, as they may interact with pramipexole
  • Pramipexole may cause drowsiness or dizziness. It is important to tell your doctor if you suffer with sleep disorders such as daytime sleepiness or somnolence, and to use caution when engaging in activities that require alertness, such as driving or operating machinery
  • The use of pramipexole during pregnancy or breastfeeding should be discussed with a healthcare provider, as it may have potential risks to the fetus or nursing infant

Side effects of pramipexole

In clinical trials, common side effects of pramipexole (incidence > 5% and more than placebo) may include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, sedation, dry mouth, dyskinesia (unusual body movements), postural changes, and constipation. It may also cause more serious side effects, such as hallucinations, confusion, trouble breathing due to an allergic reaction, or compulsive behaviors. It is important to seek medical attention if you experience any severe or persistent adverse effects.

Interactions with other drugs

Pramipexole may have drug interactions with certain medications, including other dopamine agonists, dopamine antagonists, antipsychotics, cimetidine, metoclopramide, and medications that affect dopamine levels in the brain. It is important to inform your healthcare provider about all the medications and supplements you are taking to avoid potential adverse events.
