Pramirol 1 mg Tablet

Pramirol 1 mg Tablet contains 1 mg of pramipexole in each tablet. It belongs to the anti-parkinsonian medicines known as dopamine agonists. Pramirol 1 mg Tablet is used to help treat symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, such as stiffness, slowness, tremor, and problems with movement. This strength is generally reserved for patients whose doctor has already assessed their response and need for a higher-dose tablet.

How it works: Pramipexole works by stimulating dopamine receptors in the brain, which helps replace some of the movement-signal support that is reduced in Parkinson’s disease. As an oral tablet, Pramirol 1 mg Tablet is taken by mouth and absorbed into the body to help improve motor symptoms over time.

Pramirol 1 mg Tablet is a higher-strength tablet than Pramirol 0.5 mg Tablet, so it is not usually the starting strength for most people. A doctor may choose the 1 mg tablet when a lower strength is no longer enough, or when a patient is being carefully titrated to a higher maintenance dose.

Each Pramirol 1 mg Tablet provides 1 mg of pramipexole per tablet. The tablet may be taken once daily or in divided doses depending on the treatment plan, and the maximum daily dose depends on your doctor’s instructions and your condition.
