Handy information for those trying or retrying to get Buprenorphine for RLS

neurologyadvisor.com/report...

If you are successful please start your Buprenorphine does low and give it 4 weeks. The longest assimilation I have known was 3 weeks.

I broke sublingual 2 mg dose into tiny pieces and start slow and build up over a few days.

I slept through from night one felt a little weird for 3 days , day 4 I felt normal.

I’m not sure where you live , if you are waking perhaps try adding cbd also organic WHITE not black organic sesame with lavender oil mixed and rub all of your neck , back torso anywhere really I have found it really floats me off to sleep if required .😴

A great article if it prompts doctors who were previously overly reticent, to consider prescribing buprenorphine for refractory RLS cases.
