Gabapentin therapy for RLS-related insomnia. I found that gabapentin therapy can be an effective treatment for insomnia related to Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Gabapentin is a medication that can help improve sleep quality and reduce RLS symptoms. It works by reducing the abnormal activity in the brain associated with RLS.
I take 2400mg gabapentin for restless leg syndrome but legs RLS, so it's important for RLS patients to practice good sleep-hygiene.
The typical dose for RLS is 600 mg taken in the evening before symptoms start. However, gabapentin metabolizes quickly, and that's not good for
RLS treatment. Gabapentin may also be used to treat RLS, a disorder that makes it hard to fall asleep or stay asleep. RLS causes an uncontrollable and uncomfortable urge to move your legs, which is worse at night. The FDA has approved gabapentin enacarbil (Horizant) a long-acting gabapentin as a treatment for RLS. Side effects of gabapentin
No matter what medication we are taking for RLS I feel that there are always nights (and days) that are not so good. From my own experience I feel there is always breakthrough to be expected. Gabapentin at 200mg is not a high dose. Is Gabapentin your only medication for rls.

More direct comparison between gabapentin and gabapentin enacarbil is needed for further investigation. Furthermore, when studies on cabergoline are excluded, gabapentin is not effective to relieve symptoms of RLS in the forest plot, while SUCRA indicates gabapentin is a good choice for RLS patients just inferior to oxycodone-naloxone.
Gabapentin and pregabalin also attenuate RLS symptoms, and gabapentin enacarbil (a long-acting form of gabapentin) is FDA-approved for RLS.

Otherwise, great development and great writing. Looking forward to more from you!
Not much good news. Went to my neuropathist on Wednesday for a series of tests. 'Yes', I have nerve damage and 'no', the doctor looking at the results couldn't understand why. Essentially, they ran an escalating electric current from various spots on my lower leg and foot to toes to see how I responded. I highly recommend this as a means of torture.
On the downside, I am becoming resistant to my pain medication, so life sucks coming and going. My psychiatrist upped my Gabapentin from 300 Mg to 400 Mg [3x a day] and it isn't helping. Woot? I'd kill for a decent night's sleep.
Thank you for asking. I really wish I had better news.
