First, try drinking more water before going to bed.

Like Ronn said, water is good and you could also have a magnesium deficiency. Google it & see if it applies. FYI, bathing in Epsom Salts will help cramps, they have magnesium in them. They have Epsom salts with lavender which helps me sleep a little better.

Try drinking Shwepps 'Indian Tonic Water'. It has a small amount of quinnine in it which can be helpful.

My husband had terrible cramps during the night and would have to get up and go and lay on the sofa but then he started on slow release Madopar and it eased

I also take magnesium (glycinate), 200mg before bed.
