I take sertraline it seems to work well with me I know some antidepressants make your symptoms worse ,I also have RLS/PLMD someone will come on that knows a little more about this than me good luck
Sertraline is one of the meds that can make RLS much worse. As the sertraline works well for you Mopsy, you are in the minority.
See here: rls-uk.org/#!treating-rls/czj2 and scroll down to Medications to Avoid.
Kaarina
Any antidepressant that is an SSRI or a tricyclic is going to make 99.9% of us worse. Mirtazapine is one of the safer ones, I take this and it is the only one that did not make me bounce off the ceiling!
