Klonopin

Hello, Has anyone tried Klonopin, and if so was it effective for RLS?

[SueJohnson]

In the past it was used for RLS but there is no evidence that it helps RLS so RLS experts no longer use it. It is basically a sleeping pill but it has a long half life of 40 hours so can result in tiredness the next day.

I use Klonopin, but just when I'm anxious. It didn't help my rls at all
