Depends on a condition involving the legs as there is no such med by that name....so at a rough guess......

If you have RLS/WED without an associated condition, treatment focuses on lifestyle changes, and if those aren't effective, medications.

Dopamine agonists in effect top up a low level of dopamine which is thought to be lacking in people with RLS. Dopamine agonist medicines used to treat RLS include Pramipexole, Ropinirole and Rotigotine.

Other medicines that are sometimes used include gabapentin, pregabalin, strong painkillers, and benzodiazepines. One may be tried if other treatments have not helped.

But usually they tend to stop by themselves......So get some professional advice if this is indeed what you got.......
