When to take pregabalin (Lyrica)
(Note: I tried
Horizant
, but it lasted too long into the next day, making me fuzzy-headed. I'm hoping Lyrica will not last as long. )

For my daytime RLS I've tried so many Rx's for RLS (Mirapex,
Horizant
, Neupro, etc.) and the only thing that helped me without the awful side effects was strong opioids, but my neurologist won't prescribe them, and my GP won't prescribe them because of all the talk about abusing opioids lately in the

Just curious
Here is the drug regime he put me on: 1 neupro patch every 24 hrs. plus
Horizant
with the patch. Somehow they work together. Clonazepam (1 1mg tablet 3 times a day), belsomra at bedtime. I have slept like the dead for the last three nights, but I also feel like the dead all the next day.

RLS / BID / Magnesium
I am a generally healthy 38 year old male but I suffer from excruciating RLS every night and am currently controlling the symptoms with 600mg gabapentin plus 600mg
horizant
. I’ve stayed away from DA due to fear of augmentation. Without medication the RLS symptoms and sleep issues are unbearable.

40-Year-Old Who Tried Adderall, and Felt Horrible at 5MG!
The

Saw the new neurologist today
He also wanted to start me on
Horizant
at night before bed but my insurance won't cover that medication so I will need to call the office tomorrow and he is supposed to change it to 300mg of neurontin at night before bed to see of that helps. I have a follow up with him at the end of October.

Medication Question
I take
Horizant
(gabapentin enacarbil) 600 mg. This is not enough medication to let me sleep more than a few hours of interrupted sleep and I take hours to fall asleep.

Gabapentin
Horizant
(Gabapentin XL) is for pain and RLS. In fact it's reported that Neurontin can make RLS worse. Unfortunately
Horizant
is only available in US and not in UK.

Insomnia and Relaxis pad questions?
I am now on
Horizant
(I do suffer neuropathy in left foot) and hydrocodone 2.5 to 5 mg at night and it usually puts me to sleep. I decided to try the Relaxis Pad. After first week, I can't tell that it does anything. Carl told me last night to only use it when I have symptoms of restless leg.

Finally some relief!
He initially prescribed gabapentin (up to 1,800mg), which didn't work, then on to
Horizant
, then Lyrica to no avail. All the while I was still on the 4mg Neupro patch. The goal was to find a drug that worked then wean me off the patch, which was making me worse.

Timing of iron and magnesium
I take
Horizant
(gabapentin enacarbil) 600 mg as prescribed at 5 PM with food. I am also on 1 mg of the Neupro patch, which I apply after my bath at night. I have been taking a magnesium citrate supplement after 8 PM so as to not interfere with
Horizant
absorption.

Horizant or Iron Infusion
Last, how expensive is
horizant
, what side effects have been noted with it, and is augmentation a concern? Thank you

combined response.
i was originally [mis]treated by a sleep doctor and neurologist who eventually had me on Sinemet every 2 hours. you can imagine my physical state. i was told that they didn't know what was wrong with me. my present doctor was horrified by my condition and immediately got me off the Sinemet and used
