It is not a dopamine antagonist. It is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). I had checked it out before and had not found anything that said it made RLS worse but since it does in your case you will probably want to ask your doctor for something else.

Some medicines that are safe for high blood pressure are propranolol (Inderal, Hemangeol,InnoPran), Isosorbide Mononitrate (Monoket, Imdur) which is not a beta blocker nor calcium channel blocker. And then there are the ace inhibitors such as Zestril (Lisinopril, Qbrelis, Prinivil) and Perindopril (Coversyl). Other possibilities are: Clonidine (Catapres) an Alpha-2-Agonist used to treat high blood pressure which may help RLS and which also treats insomnia, tenex (Guanfacine, Intuniv), prazosin (Minipress) an alpha-adrenergic blocker that is also useful in managing sleep-related problems caused by PTSD and Tadalafil a vasodilator that in one study completely eliminated RLS. Discuss these with your doctor.
