Mirapexin is a type of medicine called a dopamine agonist. It is prescribed in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease as well as moderate to severe restless leg syndrome.
Mirapexin can be used in combination with levodopa.
Pramipexole is also available in its generic form.
The active ingredient in Mirapexin, pramipexole, works by mimicking the effects of a chemical in the brain called dopamine.
Dopamine is a neurotransmitter, meaning that it is involved in transmitting nerve messages to and from the brain, and around the body. Dopamine is very involved in motor control, or physical movement, hence an imbalance or dysfunction of it may lead to symptoms like those seen in Parkinson’s disease.
Premipexole binds to dopamine receptors; the sites where dopamine binds and its nerve message is picked up. This, in turn, substitutes lacking dopamine and reduces the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and restless leg syndrome.
