Thanks Manerva. I suspect the trial begun in 2017 by Dr Ondo was to test if these results ( on mice) were reproduced in humans. I’ll look on the RLS foundation site to see if I can find anything.
I think there might have been something about it in the most recent ‘nightwalker’ magazine. I’ll have a look in the morning and post if I find anything. From memory the US rls society was contributing to the funding so there should be something on their website.
The problem with this drug, even if it does work, is that it uses one drug to deal with side-effects of another. And so on ad infinitum. Every addition will carry its own burden and unknowable interactions. That bothers me a lot.
