Just wondering if anyone else has experience of this sleep aid and RLS? I have bought (not available in my region on NHS yet) a month’s supply of 50mg tablets and ….. I am sleeping normally!!!! It is a new drug to the UK but tried and tested in USA I believe? Apparently minimal side effects. I have been taking it for a week now with great results, so am hopeful it will be a real help. I wake to use the loo and am aware that I am experiencing RLS or PLM but I am then able to go back to sleep within minutes of being back in bed, so the RLS is not waking me nor is it keeping me awake. I am taking iron to raise my ferritin level above 19 (!) and didn’t want to take anything else such as gabapentin until I had ruled out whether low iron is the cause of the problem for me. Hopefully this sleep aid will help get me through this process. There has been a small study ..

I would be interested to know if anyone else has experience with this medication - good or bad? May be helpful to others?
