Pramipex 1 Tablet

Product introduction
Pramipex 1 Tablet is prescribed for managing Parkinson’s disease and restless legs syndrome, a condition where a person feels an uncontrollable urge to move the legs, often linked with unpleasant sensations. This medicine helps in controlling excessive tremors and slowing abnormal body movements, which improves daily activity and comfort.

It is best to take Pramipex 1 Tablet along with meals. Taking it at the same time every day helps maintain a steady amount of the medicine in your body. Follow the dosage and duration exactly as advised by your doctor. If a dose is forgotten, take it when remembered, unless it is nearly time for the next one. Do not discontinue the medicine suddenly without medical advice, as this may worsen symptoms.

Possible side effects
Some people may experience issues such as nausea, dry mouth, tiredness, constipation, dizziness, drowsiness, swelling in the legs, or hallucinations. Since it can cause sleepiness or affect alertness, avoid driving or working with heavy machinery until you know how it affects you. Report to your doctor if you notice unusual mood changes, compulsive behavior like gambling or excessive spending, or an unusually high sex drive.
