As long as you don't begin having withdrawal symptoms, if you slowly Taper off of Mirapex you will be fine. Just make sure someone can monitor your withdrawal because I went through coma like states and suicidal ideation when i went off mine.

You do not say that the changes to your medication is with your doctor's consent.
