It's not available in the U.S. I haven't heard that it has any of the sleep problem during the day - probably because of noradrenergic activity (which Mirapex and Requip don't have). I'm still doing research on the withdrawal issue. As you know I've heard from a couple of people who didn't have a withdrawal problem on it but it looks like they were on low dosage for not that long a period of time. I found one study that claimed the withdrawal effect was comparable to that of bromocriptine but I really don't know much about bromocriptine's withdrawal so I don't quite know how to interpret that.
