Parixol Tablet 88 mcg contains Pramipexole, a dopamine agonist used primarily in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease and Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). This medication helps restore the balance of dopamine, a neurotransmitter essential for smooth and controlled muscle movements. By stimulating dopamine receptors, Parixol improves motor function, reduces tremors, and alleviates symptoms such as muscle stiffness, rigidity, and involuntary movements.
