I take 100 mg of gabapentin and it works very well for relief of restless leg symptoms. Sorry if this is a repeat but I didn't want to miss getting the word out.

Neurontin is another name it goes by. It's a prescription drug.

Good luck.

Gabapentin also stops dystonia, so it's effective for both - restless leg and dystonia. Initially some fog brain with the gabapentin but fairly mild. It's better to put up with the fog than have dystonia which prevents me from living my life.
