3 years ago I reported I had given up on my prescription medication and now take magnesium 375mg and ginkgo biloba 10,000mg once a day. As an updated it has not cured my rls but certainly contained it within acceptable limits so will not be going back to prescription medication.

That's great. Enviable that you can find a level that you're happy with, without medication.

Delighted for you - long may it last. As Manerva says it is enviable that you have a non drug method that will work.

10,000 mg of Ginko seems like a massive amount. I take a single dose of 120mg, and it usually is 60mg as a single dose.

Product sold by Healthspan on line, box states Super Strength Ginkgo Biloba 10,000 mg. Helps me with no apparent side effects.

Sorry, meant to add that I was surprised as well, 1000 mg what was originally recommended, thought at first could be micrograms but these should be shown as mcg. Box also gives values per tablet as ginkgo biloba extract 200mg and whole ginkgo biloba leaves as 10,000mg plus some others. If this helps all I know is it works as advised, thankfully.

Not what you're looking for?
