Uses

Parkinson's disease Restless leg syndrome

Benefits

In Alzheimer's disease: Mirator supports the brain's memory chemistry, which can steady memory, thinking and daily functioning for a time. It slows the effects of the disease rather than reversing them.
In Dementia: Mirator helps maintain attention, memory and the ability to manage daily tasks for longer in dementia.
In Parkinson's disease: Mirator replaces or mimics the dopamine the brain is losing, easing the stiffness, slowness and tremor of Parkinson's so movement is freer.

Side effects

Most side effects of Mirator are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

Nausea
Loss of appetite
Loose motions
Dizziness
Sleep disturbance
Involuntary movements

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Mirator 0.25 Tablet may be taken with or without food.

Report sudden daytime sleep attacks, hallucinations, or new gambling, spending or other impulsive behaviour — these are recognised effects and the dose may need review. Rise slowly from sitting or lying; a drop in blood pressure on standing is common.
